Dante's Old Fashioned Whiskey Cocktail
Dashes of bitters just keep this from wavering onto the sweet side of bittersweet. Honey adds delicate richness to rye whiskey and amaro

The salt is what makes a difference in this fabulous cocktail. Didn't have pimento bitters so I ground allspice with sea salt in a mortar and added a bit of hot water to get the flavours extracted. Used the finely strained mixture in place of bitters and saline solution.
