This was really fantastic. I opted to go with a lower proof rye (Woodford Reserve) to pair with the 40%abv calvados. I also decided to sub cocchi instead of opening a new bottle of carpano antica, but now that I've seen the original recipe uses cinnamon tincture instead of angostura I guess I have to give this one another shot sooner than later.

I added some olive bitters that I happened to have which probably helped temper the sweetness a bit. It was good, but I definitely want to try adding some olive brine next time

I kinda made a different drink, but I used 5ml less creme de banane and added 5ml of frangelico, and used cardamom bitters and cinnamon tincture in lieu of abbots. Incredible complementary flavors for the Heaven Hill BiB I used.

I used Akashi Takumi
