Interesting. I confess I can't decide if I love it or only find it to be okay. I do like the various flavors, but it seems like it needs something to tie them together. I'm thinking maybe something simple like molasses or walnut bitters instead of the orange bitters?

I agree with the previous suggestion to use Nonino rather than Montenegro. There's very little in it - it's a great drink either way - but with Nonino it feels just slightly more balanced.

  • I added 1/4 oz Luxardo for flavor. I liked it, but I'll try 1/2 oz next. I'll also try cherry bitters, to see if it works better than the Luxardo. Without the Luxardo, I would rate this cocktail as 3.0.

  • Bold and beautiful. Also goes well with an orange garnish.
  • Bitter and smokey, good, but not amazing. I think there are better things to do with mescal.

Unless there's a lot of strong feeling, I'm going to merge the Oaxacan Negroni into this drink tomorrow. This is three years older and actually equal parts. Thanks,  Zachary

  • Made with Black Bottle and Lustau Los Arcos. Vermouth, lemon oil, and Scotch on the nose, with heavy vanilla sweetness on the sip, and dry savory sherry and some malt/smoke on the swallow. Try again with a strong malt.

  • Two Graves — Reposado Tequila, Amontillado Sherry, Dimmi, Orange bitters, Lemon peel
  • Lousã Special — Bourbon, Bianco Vermouth, Beirao

This is a nice way to dry out Carpano Antica for sipping, but not a great showcase for the other ingredients, nor do the flavors coalesce into something new. Next time I'll try it with the sherry bumped up to 3/4 oz and a strong single malt rather than a blend.

The Sure Thing

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray 10 (chamomile-infused)
3⁄4 oz Aromatized wine, Cocchi Americano
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Bianco Vermouth, Dolin
1⁄2 oz Honey syrup (1:1)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up, garnish with a thyme sprig speared through a cucumber slice.

Notes

To make the chamomile infusion, combine 3 ounces of dried chamomile flowers (whole buds if possible) with a 750-mL bottle of Tanqueray No. Ten Gin in a large container. Cover, and let stand overnight. Strain out the chamomile and rebottle.
