My first exposure to Fernet. I made it to the original Savoy recipe and thought it was horrid (mind you, I couldn't abide Campari when I first tried it, and now I enjoy it - and other amari - quite regularly). I added (post-pour, for a first try) the orange bitters Donna suggested, and the saline solution. They vastly improved the drink, so I think I'll be fixing another shortly ... properly this time!
