Notes

A spin on my legendary “Smoky Sunset” (https://kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/smoky-sunset). Yeah, it’s a lazy Negroni sub. But it takes advantage of the natural affinity between Bruto & Mezcal. The Punt e Mes accentuates the bitterness - even makes it slightly astringent - and helps shape a great warm weather combo.
