Did not have Averna, but I messed with comboing Jager and Meletti and decided on 2:1. Wasn't quite Averna, but it was close enough. Resultant swill was ok, but I think the Cocchi di Torino wasn't quite right. But now I'm looking California and feeling Dolin-sota.

I was looking for something to use my Averna in. Found this recipe. Used the Laphroaig I had. I really liked the blend of the strong scotch and Averna. Will make again.

A good scotch really shines here. The Talisker is lovely.

Only had carpano for the red vermouth tonight, so added ones dash orange bitters to lighten it. Deep and intense flavours, like a Scottishv old fashioned, in full kilt and sash. One to savour.

Almost feels sacrilegious using Talisker in a cocktail but all my qualms went away pretty quickly after a few sips.
One you can really sit with and enjoy slowly.

I just put Talisker in a Rose Crescent and it was phenomenal. Can't feel too guilty...

tried with laphroaig cask strength. maybe too stinky, not sure it works with averna. the blander wheatier glenmo might be my preferred even though it's not a speyside

Very pleasant, but I think Prospector No 2 has the edge on it.
