Vieil Hexagone

3⁄4 oz Rhum Agricole (HSE black sheriff)
3⁄4 oz Brandy (Spanish)
3⁄4 oz Sweet vermouth (Lustau)
1⁄8 oz Fernet Branca
1⁄8 oz Simple syrup (Chinotto soda simple syrup)
1⁄8 oz Campari
Instructions

Stir, strain, coupe.

Notes

Wood notes of brandy and rum mix very well.
I wanted to use Punt e Mes instead of classic vermouth but had any bottle on hand.

History

Pretty much like vieux carré kind of drinks with split spirit base.
