- Excellent. I backed off the ratio for Robin to 1:1:1 and added a half part of dry vermouth.
- Delicious. Made with bank note.
- let it melt a bit - caramel of macallen gold comes thru real nicely
- Used Teachers as blended scotch.predinner
- Bitter and sophisticated. Good even with my modest Famous Grouse. In the ballpark of the excellent Search for Delicious, which I think I'd prefer when a lemon is at hand.
- Double scotch and do 1/2 ea Cynar and vermouth
- In this case, I favor the sweet vermouth version. I believe the Punt e Mes submerged the Cynar. Also, it works with reducing the Cynar to 0.5 oz. Using Antica emphasizes its IPA characteristics - not worth repeating.

Great drink and a nice Scotch
Submitted by Peyton on
Great drink and a nice Scotch spin on a Little Italy, but 1-2 dashes of orange bitters does the trick.
Corrected: 1oz orange bitters
