Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place an Old Fashioned glass (rocks glass) in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail.
Measure ingredients
Using a jigger, measure 2 oz Lucano Amaro, 0.75 oz cognac, 0.5 oz sweet vermouth, 0.25 oz orange liqueur, and 0.25 oz simple syrup. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
Mix
Fill a mixing glass with plenty of ice. Add the measured amaro, cognac, sweet vermouth, orange liqueur, simple syrup, and bitters to the mixing glass.
Stir
Stir the mixture gently but thoroughly for 30–45 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted (the mixing glass should frost on the outside). Aim for about 20–25% dilution from the ice.
Prepare serving glass
Discard the ice water from the chilled Old Fashioned glass (if used) and add a single large ice cube or sphere to the glass.
Strain
Double-strain (or fine-strain) the chilled cocktail from the mixing glass into the prepared serving glass over the large ice cube to keep the drink clear and cold.
Express garnish
Hold an orange peel over the drink, skin-side down, and give it a sharp squeeze to express the oils onto the surface. Optionally rub the peel around the rim of the glass, then drop the twist into the drink as a garnish.
Serve
Serve immediately. Sip slowly to appreciate the bittersweet herbal profile of the Lucano and the warmth from the cognac.
