Used Fernet Branca - perhaps the menthol with that one is too strong. Could see a lemon peel adding to it. 

Didn't have Macadamia bitters, so used chocolate bitters to avoid introducing anything totally foreign to the drink. A great recipe, but hard to describe. More than the sum of its parts, which are all recognizable in the taste. It's a drink that makes you think.

Nice to find a recipe specifically calling for Luxardo Fernet now that I've acquired a bottle to explore beyond Fernet Branca.
