Tried this last night with China-China Bigallet in the Picon slot. Delightful. Slightly increased the amounts of each element and served this Up. Am hoping to be visited by a bottle of the real Picon in the near future and will avidly compare. Cheers and china-china.

Didn't have Amer Picon, so used Amaro Montenegro and 2 dashes of orange bitters to add the bitter orange flavour. Worked wonderful.

Lovely, complex, yet easy to drink...upped Falernum to 1/4 oz. and rum to 2 oz. Staying on brand :)

Found a variation of this recipe that uses .75oz Averna and 2 dashes of orange bitters instead of Amer Picon. Really enjoyable.

Absolutely brilliant, with or without ice. What is it with New Orleans and drinks?
I subbed Montenegro for Averna, but I find those two have a similar ‘sweet’ profile as far as amari go.
Granted the dry/sour rating is for Difford’s recipe, but that original recipe is *way* sweeter than what I anticipated.
