  • Needs less syrup. Seems amenable to additions -- cherry heering, triple sec, benedictine, etc.

  • Southern Exposure — Bourbon, Sweet vermouth, Ancho Reyes chile liqueur, Crème de Cacao, Cherry Bark Vanilla Bitters
  • The Rail Car — Rye, Chicory Liqueur, Orange bitters, Simple syrup, Orange peel
  • Brave Bootlegger — Rye, Mozart Black, Fernet Branca
  • Court and Degraw — Bourbon, Sweet vermouth, Chocolate bitters, Caffé Amaro

Up bitters and reduce syrup; it overpowers the drink.  Good but not quite perfect -- a solid base to tinker from.
