Imho, the Suze is overpowering the rest of the ingredients. Will try again with 15 or even 10ml Suze. Delicious tho!

This was a great aperitivo cocktail, we absolutely loved it. Just that the Italian guest of my party was quite startled with the name since apparently "ino" is a suffix in Italian to express something is small or cute and the previous part of the name equating the N-word in Italian. So yea an unfortunate wording for native Italian speakers apparently.

Wethinks you and your Italian guest were being a wee bit overly sensitive about the root negr-...but we hesitate to use the W-word. Should we be politely asking the good folk of Montenegro to consider a name change for their country? The root negr- simply means black. But we agree with you that it's a lovely aperitivo. Cheers.

In the absence of Suze threw in some Averna, which no doubt changed the flavour profile but which we certainly enjoyed!

I'm loving fino as a cocktail ingredient at the moment - and this is is a peach, really delicious!

I love Suze and I love good Sloe Gin. This is a marriage made in Fino Heaven. Next time I'll give this a brief stir on ice and strain into a chilled coupe.

Is the garnish supposed to be a grapefruit wedge or a grapefruit twist? The photo has a twist, but the text says wedge.

The original recipe specifies wedge but we preferred with a twist. I have amended the garnish specified above accordingly. Thanks for bringing to my attention.
