Used Ardbeg Wee Beastie, Meletti, and Dolin Rouge. Amazingly, it all works. Can't tell if an orange peel would be a nice add or somehow break the delicate balance.

The compatibility of the whisky and vermouth probably makes or breaks this cocktail.
I used Islay Mist with Martini Rosso and actually really liked it..

I like Laphroaig, I like Fernet Branca, but sadly this cocktail is just hideous.
