Shawn C commented on 8/25/2025:

This one will depend a lot on the specific components used if one considers the reference recipe & substitutions there. Zucca is quite sweet with a rich umami/smokiness to it, while Sfumato is much less sweet/and more intensely bitter. (For some cocktails I prefer a 50:50 mix of the two to create the right balance.) Lillet Blanc is a light touch, neither sweet nor bitter, while Cocchi Americano is intense, much sweeter but also has far more cinnamon spice and quinine bitterness. So there is some room to dial the cocktail in to one's tastes. It wasn't clear to me which rum was originally called for, I didn't think the Flor de Cana 4 yr extra dry would have enough flavor, but I didn't have the 4 yr Anejo Gold on hand. I hedged for something between with Bacardi Gold. Overall the recipe worked (Bacardi Gold/Lillet/Zucca) trending semi-sweet with rhubarb bitterness and smoky/umami, but I will retry with the Anejo Oro.
