I increased the rye (Crater Lake Reserve) to 2 oz and it's still pretty heavy and sweet. This really doesn't need both an amaro (Lucano) *and* a vermouth amaro (Cocchi Dopo Teatro). It might be better with a lighter, more conventional rosso instead.
Very much enjoyed this. As Matthias tried, used Amaro Nonino as I so far have been unable to source Amaro Nardini. Reading on-line the flavour profiles of each, I am guessing there won't be a huge difference, but I would very much like to compare the two versions.
I tried this with Amaro Nonino and Michter's Rye Punt E Mes, Maraschino as recommended. A little less alcohol than 100 proof rye, but loved the herbal notes of the Amaro Nonino.
