  • Scotch + cola. Walnut bitters does well here.
  • 3 stars with Averna, but 5 stars with Biglet China China!
  • Simple drink that's surprisingly complex.

Agree with a 3 with averna. Black walnut bitters + averna and punt a mes just leads to a kind of muddy bitterness with the scotch I was using (highland park 12). Suspect there is a good mix here, this wasn't it. Curious about using my homemade Amer Picon.
