Cocktail Colin says:

4/5

The Obal’s Toasted Almond cocktail is a decadent symphony where Bailey’s and amaretto sing an almond-flavored duet, accentuated by the subtle bitterness of coffee liqueur. Its rich, dessert-like profile is boldly rounded out by vodka and a dash of milk, creating a smooth, velvety finish that indulges the palate with warmth and a layered complexity.

Very rich and creamy taste. Nice almond vibes from the amaretto. Coffee liqueur adds a good kick. Could use a bit less milk, but personal preferece. Perfect for sweet cocktail lovers.
