An Unusual Graft

1 oz Gin
1⁄2 oz Tawny port
1⁄2 oz PInk grapefruit juice
1⁄2 oz Amaro Nonino
1⁄4 oz Donn's Spices #2
3⁄10 oz Fig syrup
2 ds Bitters, Fee Brothers Black Walnut
Instructions

Shake all with ice, coupé. Drop the bitters on top.

Notes

A drier gin is best, but not a particularly juniper-y one. I used St. George Dry Rye.

For the fig syrup, I use 50:50 hot water and fig preserves (Trader Joe's has a good one). Miele di fichi would also work well here.

History

I was curious about fig and grapefruit together.
