Dead Man's Alley

1 1⁄2 oz Rye (Rittenhouse if you have it.)
1⁄2 oz Mezcal
1⁄2 oz Braulio
1⁄2 oz Amaro, Cappelletti Sfumato Rabarbaro
1⁄8 oz Maple syrup
1 twst Orange peel (As garnish.)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into an old fashioned glass with ice, and garnish with an orange twist.

History

Recently, I was inspired by a local drink I spotted with rye, Braulio, maple syrup, and walnut bitters to tinker. The Amaro Daiquiri made me think of the Braulio-Sfumato combination, and I split the rye 3:1 with mezcal that has worked in a number of drinks. I named this Black Manhattan with a touch of maple after a sketchy alley in 19th century San Francisco mentioned in Herbert Asbury's The Barbary Coast book.
