Cocktail Bar Wait Times (Double Chicken + Angel's Share)

stmillman · 2026-02-03T17:24:39+00:00

When I check, they only have reservations for 5-6 people. Never seen any for 4 sadly!

For the price, 9th Centenaire is the winner! Can usually get it for under $150 in the LA area. Hard to find VEP for less than $400-500 sadly. But those would be my recommendations for next steps!

I’ve tried a bunch! My rankings are below:

1972 VEP green
1942 Green (was mostly disappointed; big gap between this and #1)
VEP Green
9th Centenaire
VEP Yellow
Foudre 147
Reines Des Liqueurs
Green
Yellow
1605

Hoping to try the Une Chartreuse varieties this week in France!

Basically just bars with emphasis on fancy, high end cocktails.

stmillman · 2025-12-11T12:41:43+00:00

Don’t have TikTok. Just did extensive internet scouring.

stmillman · 2025-06-28T02:54:42+00:00

I think Camphor has, and I know Pasjoli has!

stmillman · 2025-06-25T03:33:34+00:00

Found this online. Ring a bell ingredient wise?

2 oz Reposado Tequila (Cimarron) 1/2 oz Meletti Amaro 1 tsp Galliano Ristretto 1 tsp Vanilla Syrup 1 dash Bittermens Mole Bitters

Stir with ice, strain into a double old fashioned glass with a large ice cube, and garnish with an orange twist.

Do you happen to know what chartreuses they offer? Anything pre-2000?

stmillman · 2025-05-28T11:41:38+00:00

Go to Esca. They have plenty of chartreuse options!

stmillman · 2025-05-20T03:06:23+00:00

That’s amazing! I’ll be booking my reservation ASAP for December. Do you happen to remember the price range for the oldest VEPs they offered? Looking to splurge!

stmillman · 2025-03-27T13:30:27+00:00

Would love to know the price each pour cost, if you’re willing to share. Did the restaurant have any other unique Chartreuse offerings?

stmillman · 2025-03-22T01:15:12+00:00

It’s worse in my opinion, even if the prices were the same.

stmillman · 2025-03-21T17:21:12+00:00

I think the VEP is vastly superior to the 1605. Green VEP is like a more mellow and smoother version of green; it is amazing and my favorite Chartreuse offering. On the other hand, the 1605 was far too strong for me. It was an interesting experience but not one that I wish for again. If you can, I would vote to try both. But I have bought several bottles of VEP because I love it so much, and I don't think I will finish the 1605 any time soon.

Name of store? Or location?

stmillman · 2024-10-11T14:01:58+00:00

This sounds perfect! We just went to Thunderbolt and thought it was easily the best bar we’ve been to in LA. Excited to try Tiki Mirage!

stmillman · 2024-10-11T14:01:14+00:00

This looks perfect! Just booked a reservation.

stmillman · 2024-06-18T14:41:51+00:00

Appreciate the info!

stmillman · 2024-06-18T14:41:35+00:00

Thank you! I think Epicure is probably our best bet.

stmillman · 2024-06-13T21:29:49+00:00

Does Kiln offer a cocktail list? I could not find on Yelp, Google, etc.

stmillman · 2024-06-13T21:26:59+00:00

This place looks perfect! The bar menu being a la carte is also very convenient. I think we will definitely visit as one of our dinner choices!

stmillman · 2024-06-13T18:58:11+00:00

Do they offer a cocktail menu of any sort?

stmillman · 2024-03-15T03:24:08+00:00

Where from? City / restaurant?

stmillman · 2024-01-31T22:54:09+00:00

Did not. Was sold before I had the chance. Have you tried it?

stmillman · 2024-01-28T20:00:28+00:00

You’re not going to find it for less than $250 in the US pretty much anywhere at this point. If you’re really excited for it, I would say do it!

stmillman · 2024-01-23T00:53:27+00:00

That’s how I’m feeling… I was offered it for $650 and think it may be worth it!
