Comments

Quite good, probably the best Amaro Abano drink I have had so far--Abano has proven surprisingly challenging in the recipes I have tried thus far. The combination here works and stands up to the Abano, yielding a very dark brown color. Flavor is dark baking spice, some orange zest/mint/herbal character, a bit of red grape/berry with rye body and alcohol heat.
