Review:
Whoever created this bittersweet drink is clearly in league with Beelzebub himself – it's devilishly good. With rich bourbon, a hint of smoky mezcal, amaro bitterness and lemon freshness balanced by almond syrup. Also try substituting all, or at least half of the amaro with Ferro China to put a bit of iron into this devil.
