Well, with these proportions, it’s even short in a Nick & Nora. Punchy, tasty, but insufficiently distinctive to merit so many ingredients.

I know…didn’t fill the glass much…I think I’d used one of my vintage glassware

Boozy, bitter, smoky, so many things to like. Low volume, high octane. Next time Flamed Orange will be nice, similar to another favorite cocktail found on Difford’s, the Revolver.

At first I thought this drink was a bit of an unfocused mess, but then I tried adding a lemon peel and it was a significant improvement - really bringing the flavors together.

Wow. Probably the smokiest drink I've tried that doesn't involve islay whisky. Must be the mescal and the averno doing their thing.

Didn't know what to expect from the ingredients. Never thought it would be drinking Germolene through a liquorice Rizla roll-up, but IN A GOOD WAY. Wild. 4.5/5.

I like Mezcal, Rye, and the two together, but alas, this one is a bit of a mess. It doesn't know what it wants to be, and fails on all fronts.

I prefer Fidencio in place of Vida, but regardless, this cocktail is a work of art.

Really interesting cocktail with a LOT of different flavors, but they blend together well. I didn't have Mezcal at home so used a High West rye finished in scotch barrels, then a standard blanco tequila.
