It's been over 2 years since I was sent a free bottle of this stuff - and just got around to drinking it. It was fantastic so was looking to buy some more and came across this price. Usually $59.99 from both Dan Murphy's and Mr Black direct.

500ml vs 700ml?

Answer to the top thread mate
MANU7D is doing their best mate.
From what he said and wrote, he's need to visit specsavers mate
No problemo, it's good you've recognised it; don't know why everyone here is salting the wound
Absolutely fantastic coffee liqueur đź‘Ť
Anyone know how this compares to the discontinued Patron?
Very different flavour. Patron is tells based and you can taste that, whereas this is much cleaner coffee taste. I prefer the patron on ice but this is still pretty good. Patron has a higher ABV and O prefer it neat, for cocktails it will make less of a difference. Cascabel coffee tequila is a pretty good coffee tequila to try too
This one is continued
Patron is (was) infused tequila - an actual spirit vs this which is a liquor. You can drink it fine with ice or milk but I like it best in cocktails.
It's low alcohol. 23% ABV, 12.7 standard drinks. $3.50 a STD.
..it's a liqueur, mate? Liqueurs are generally 15-30%, most sitting around the 17-21% mark.
Used to be 25%, must have dropped slightly. I still have a 25% bottle at home.
You can get STDs much cheaper than that ;)
Found this to be a nice drop too.

$49/500ml
Would you buy this for mostly cocktails coffee martinis etc or can you also drink straight with ice like baileys?
I just add a shot with my morning coffee
You can definitely drink straight with ice. Or a bit of milk and icecream for a cheeky affogato. Or even just a bit of milk and ice and it's like a boozy iced coffee.
It's really good stuff.
a dazzle of this on home made xmas pudding with custard was delish
How do you drink this?
I drink it with ice
With your mouth
How do you drink it with their mouth?
Yes
No
Can also go up the date for more rapid caffeine absorption.
Espresso martinis
How do you make this?
As per below comment:
Add equal measures of coffee, vodka and Mr Black, lots of ice and shake.
The vodka is usually doubled, any decent vodka won't alter the flavour too much in a 2 parts vodka ratio.
Depends how strong you want them :)
https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/espresso-martini (skip the sugar/simple syrup, Mr Black already has enough)
I would add that mixing in some sugar syrup might be necessary. Mr Black is less sweet than something like kahlua.
This is my current recipe:
1 part Mr Black
1 part vodka - not important which type, as long as it's fairly clean
1 or 2 parts filter or cold brew coffee - I don't have a coffee machine
1 teaspoon of agave syrup or sugar syrup
1 dash of orange bitters
Shake with a few ice cubes, much longer if the coffee is hot
It's probably quite a different drink with an actual espresso shot instead, but this has been doing the job for a while. I've tried a smooth whisky instead of vodka too and it can be okay, but vodka gets much less in the way.
With milk
Espresso martini’s!!
This makes the best espresso Martinis. Add equal measures of coffee, vodka and Mr Black, lots of ice and shake.
Would this be good for tiramisu?
Kahlua is cheaper for $29.99 700ml
