1 oz Rye, Sazerac
1⁄2 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey
3⁄4 oz Calisaya
Instructions

Mix ingredients with ice in a mixing glass.
Strain into an old fashioned glass with a large rock.

Notes

The smoke from the Mezcal hit first, followed by the spicy rye, finishing with a lingering cinchona and herbal bitterness from the Calisaya and Punt e Mes. Maybe add an orange peel garnish next time.

History

We wanted to create a new recipe to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. We tend to like stirred, bitter drinks, so this recipe hit the spot.
