The Beauty Beneath
Rum-forward with zesty orange and bittersweet herbal notes

The surgical madness that's required to fix this scares me... Bacardi 8, Cocchi di Torino, Campari, Luxardo Triplum, and Bogart's bitters. The aftertaste is lovely, but the chemical flavors are off-putting... I did just find your article, Jeffrey - vastly different brands. I'll be back.

Thanks for highlighting. I've amended the recipe to better represent the original and added a link to Jeffrey's site. Our previous recipe: 52.5ml Caribbean blended rum aged 6-10 years, 15ml rosso vermouth, 15ml red bitter liqueur, 15ml triple sec, 1 dash aromatic bitters.

Gotta give this five stars... I couldn't set it down. Tasted great with Combier, Campari, and Cocchi Storico; Bacardi 8 year old. Gonna switch it up next time maybe some higher proof rum and Cocchi Dopo Teatro for a bit more bitter.
