Made it with Myers Original Dark Rum, Aperol and Nonino Quintessenzia. In this combination the rum comes lovely through. Although I am a big fan of the original Paper Plane, I would love this combination to be a bit less bitter. Maybe Mionetto Aperitivo could do that.
I found the reason for the bitterness in testing my new bottle Myers. This rum has a nice taste, but a bitter undertone, which makes it necessary to adapt cocktails .
