  • Used Averna because I don't stock Cynar regularly.
  • Pleasant, boozy cocktail. Made as described.
  • Made a lighter version with hochstadter rye (I don't like bourbon), dolin and cardamaro but it made a beautifully floral orange drink.
  • Very Manhattan-esque except more interesting. But not that much more interesting.
  • One of the best. Delicate and rounded or by orange notes — ★★★★★
