EtherPole commented on 5/04/2023:

The recipe gives 7oz drink with foam. Don't try to serve it in a Nick&Nora or a small coupe.


Very long list split

3⁄4 oz Rye, Rittenhouse 100
1 1⁄2 oz Rum (Paranubes 50%)
1⁄3 oz Oleo-saccharum (Homemade)
1⁄3 oz Suze
1⁄4 oz Falernum (Homemade)
1⁄8 oz Ouzo
Instructions

Shake long strain, coupe. Serve.

Notes

Paranubes is made of cane juice. Subsitute white agricole rum.

Oleo: lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit peel+ sugar. Overnight. A bit of water.
Falernum: Mine is like an orgeat in texture. Blend ginger, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, lime peels, almonds, with rum, sugar, water. Let steep a week or two.
Strain a bit...

History

I've tried 1/4 for the modifiers.
Drier, rumy. But flavors do not pop enough.

Shawn C commented on 7/03/2023:

Surprisingly good, but I made an unintended modification (perhaps subconsciously), using 1/2 oz of simple syrup rather than the called for 1/4. I had feared that Salers known drying effect would be too much with the 3/4 ounce of lemon, since the Dimmi is balanced between sweet and bitter. The inadvertent use of 1/2 oz simple syrup resulted in a very balanced drink, with the floral (apricot and citrus blossom) of the Dimmi, some gentiane/wormwood bitterness. The flavor/aroma are reminiscent of Aveze in some ways.
