I am a big fan of cynar, so I was excited to come across the Bitter Giuseppe. I think the version with 1/4 oz Lemon juice and 6 dashes of orange bitters (I use Luxardo) is perfect.

I have also created a Smoky Giuseppe which I think is even better. I think Cynar 70 and mezcal work well together.

Smoky Giuseppe

2oz Cynar 70
1oz Dolin Vermouth Rouge
1/4oz Mezcal
1/2oz Apricot Brandy
1/4oz Cherry Heering
1/4oz lemon juice
6 dashes Orange bitters

I didn't have Cynar 70 but this is still delicious with the regular ABV one. Chapeu! You should upload this as a recipe here so I can favourite it.
