Spirituous, smoky, earthy, bittersweet, floral, herbal and complex. I've reduced the original serve by one-third to produce a complex, serious and most...
I made the full size version and I must say this is just great. And amazingly it came out awesome on first try: I really thought I would need to go back and try many different combination of mezcal/amaro/rye but that was not the case. BTW I used St. Germain, Aperol, Averna, Ezra Brooks straight rye 45%, and Derrumbes Durango.
You should rename this cocktail "The Marmite" given how it has divided people! I love it. Made it with Nonino as I didn't have any Averna; maybe that makes all the difference. Like some other commenters I said "where's the rest of it" so doubled the ingredients for a proper drink.
Quite nice and a lot more enjoyable than the similar Beelzebub we tried last night. Didn’t happen to have a regular orange at hand, but a garnish of Bergamot orange zest made it sing. Too bad you have to grow your own to get Bergamots.
