  • I found this drink to be quaffable but not memorable. I think some of the issue is with name recognition - if "cognac, rye, Amaro Nonino" means nothing to you on a menu, then this is a pretty delicious drink. But if you know what cognac, rye, and Amaro Nonino taste like individually, I feel like this drink doesn't celebrate any of those base ingredients. Maybe there's something clever about the "carpenters" reference I'm missing that makes this drink more of an in-joke or cheeky concoction. As-is...it's another case of too many touches for too little benefit. — ★★★
