A riff on a classic Tipperary, with Islay single malt and Italian red bitter liqueur adding complexity

Well this was a surprise. The only Irish whisky I had was Connemara peated so I used 45mls of that instead of the 30mls of Irish + 15mls of peated scotch. Vermouth was antica formula. Extremely complex yet well balanced drink, not to smoky or peaty either. Just a tiny bit too sweet, would try without the simple syrup next time.
