Still loving the waltz going on here between dark fruit, coffee, and chocolate notes. Broody, fun, worthy of a dramatic mystery. Cheers! Making my way slowly through this 10-year single malt from the Pacific Northwest. Taps my sherry disinclination. But it’s quality stuff nonetheless. Cheers! Love me a Black Manhattan. (Recipe 📸2) And Bigallet China China is easily my favorite amaro, for that cocktail or any other. Look at the fantastic range of color. Tastes great too. Cheers!
