I tried using a lower proof rye (Templeton) to reduce my buzz, but the result wasn't great. I'm not going to rate it since I didn't make to spec, but as made it was a 3-4. Needed either higher octane as specified or some more ~aromatic bitters to keep it from being cloying.

  • I went a little light on the Fernet and a little heavy on the syrup to accommodate my local audience. Very tasty! Will make again.
  • A bit raw, but fun escalation in the finish.
