Review:

A quartet of fortified wines add complexity to this spirit-forward aperitivo. Delicious when made with a blended Scotch, but consider using an unpeated island malt to build on the subtle salty notes in the manzanilla.

First off, I believe a sweetened coconut water is in order. I've been testing drinks with my Iberia organic today and each drink is dull city... For this one, I made it with a motley mix. My 'Scotch' was 2:1 Mellow Corn to Laird's bonded apple, while I only had Amontillado. But what promise!... I'll come back this. Interesting. (14 Feb 2024, 1:58p)
