Coda di Leone

1 1⁄2 oz Bourbon (Evan Williams Black label)
3⁄4 oz Amaro (Sibano Amaro)
1⁄2 oz Allspice Dram, St. Elizabeth
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 sli Lime (as garnish)
Instructions

Combine with ice, shake, double strain into chilled coupe or cocktail glass. Garnish with lime wheel.

Notes

More developed than the classic Lion's Tail, a marked improvement in my opinion. The Sibano works particularly well here and is Ward's original call.

History

A riff on the Lion's Tail (Coda di Leone is Lion's Tail in Italian) that introduces Sibona Amaro to add needed complexity.
