Two Tuesdays ago, I was in the mood for something lighter, so I turned to Drew Lazor's Session Cocktails and spotted the Low Down by Evan Milliman at Atlanta's Ticonderoga Club. Once shaken and strained, the Low Down welcomed the nose with earthy bitter aromas from the Sfumato along with hints of orange from the Campari. Next, lemon and honey made for an easy sip, and the swallow had floral notes meeting bitter earthy ones with a honey and orange finish.
