Campari's bitterness plus the brandy/lemon background tastes divine in this. I skipped the pyrotechnics but did flame the lemon zest. Kind of underwhelming compared to orange zest. Cocktail was excellent.

I shaked this one, and it tastes good. Perfect for an aperitif.

Out of curiosity, if it has lemon juice, why this cocktail should be stirred if you decide to do it without flaming cognac?

Stirring was Brother Cleve's preference, but feel free to shake if you prefer.

Great cocktail and wonderful as an aperitivo. Did not do the pyrotechnics, but wonderfully balanced. Perfect for sipping after a long day and as an early evening pick-me-up.

Wonderful cocktail, even without the showmanship. Should make an entry for regular Edison (now only a couple of bars show up in the resultsbar)

Hi Emiel - please can you tell me what you mean by "now only a couple of bars show up in the results bar" so I can fix.
