A rye whiskey and mezcal-based Old Fashioned that's made special by a splash of amaro

After trying with both mezcal and a peated single malt scotch, presuming the latter would be an improvement, I can confirm that I was wrong. I did find the rye got a bit overpowered but the earthy notes from the mezcal really worked. I'm thinking maybe upping the rye would prefect it for me.
