Mine came out in the dreaded cocktail brownish color, which is not too visually appealing. To borrow a quote from the culinary world "You 'drink' with your eyes first". However; it more than makes up for it in flavor. Very nicely balanced. The Campari and Amaro are prevalent, Allspice dram and sweetness come in at the end. A very nice cocktail.

Like Calvin below, I also skipped the egg white, and also switched up the rum, to Goslings in my case. A very good, wintery aperitif indeed. It starts off with lime tartness and a hint of sweetness, moves through rum molasses, and ends with mild bitterness. The spices from the allspice dram, amaro, and bitters support it throughout. An excellent pre-dinner drink on this cold January evening.

Wow. Out of light rum, used Bacardi gold; skipped the eggwhite (was out of eggs also). Simply awesome! Will be revisiting this one. Five stars and a heart!
