- This is one of the most interesting cocktails I've made in a long time. Sadly, it's more interesting than good.

Remarkably similar in taste to "Blood & Sand." I was surprised given Blood & Sand has scotch as its base liquor, while Blood and Famine uses Bushmill's Irish whiskey for its base liquor (I chose Black Bush because of its strong, sturdy body notes). I also used Dolin Rouge for Blood and Sands' sweet vermouth. Black Bush manages to make its presence known over the other ingredients, that are also in Blood & Sand, which explains why both taste somewhat similar. The Blood & Sand is somewhat sweeter, as I used Dewar's scotch (a pleasant, light in body, blended scotch). In short, if you like one, you'll like the other. I rated Blood & Famine at 4.0.</p>
Combine all ingredients in shaker. Fine strain into a coupe and garnish with a flamed orange.

I like it with rye: http://www.kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/no-loitering
Combine everything besides the champagne into mixing tin and shake. Fine strain into a collins glass and top with champagne. Garnish with Grapefruit twist
Stir with ice and strain. Twist the lemon peel and drop it in.
Still a bit rough around the edges, but it's quite nice. Might sub the Fernet for another bitter ingredient.
