Comments

This cocktail is phenomenal!!!  I upped the nocino to AT LEAST 1/2 oz & used 1 dash or Orange bitters & 1 dash of Black Walnut bitters...  this is now on my go-to regular rotation

This is a very good cocktail. I was concerned that the mild flavor of Amaro Nonino would be lost here, but it works. I used a batch of Abbott's bitters I just made based on Darcy O'Neil's recipe (I am quite pleased with them.) Other components were Nux Alpina and Courvoisier VSOP. A slightly drier cognac than I used might be a better choice for this drink.
