My-my! I tried it as a layered shooter (like in the Chartreuse's site) - this one packs quite a punch, regarding the green "liqueur" is 57% ABV. And to make it even tougher, it appeared that the only "sweet" vermouth I have at the moment is the quite bitter Punt e Mes. It doesn't black you out and drain your life like the Kugelblitz, but still hits you pretty good.
