Good Puzzle, however practically rarely may happen such mating.

THere is another CM:

 

white plays A7 and locks the Black king in place, Black will be forced to move the g pawn, and then Nb6 CM!

Simple and ugly :)

I am always grateful for some tactical polishing exercises, so good on you.

The h8 rook could have delivered the second blow, but a two bishop double stab is always nicer.
