to rome with love

1 oz Bourbon (Evan Williams Bonded)
1 oz Lillet Blanc (Cocchi Americano)
1/2 oz Benedictine
1/2 oz Zucca (Sfumato)

Stir with ice, strain into a coupe rinsed with Strega, and garnish with a lemon twist.Two Mondays ago, I returned to J.E. Clapham's That's Amaro book and spotted the To Rome with Love from Cork & Cow in Franklin, Tennessee, that reminded me in name of the Rome with a View but was most likely dubbed after the 2012 Woody Allen movie. GoogleMaps has a menu photo that includes this drink circa 2019. Overall, the combination reminded me of the Country Lawyer made with blanc vermouth instead of Lillet and no Strega rinse, and the pairing of Benedictine and Zucca/Sfumato was one that I utilized in the Leaf Fall at Drink. In the glass, the To Rome with Love showcased a lemon, roast, and star anise bouquet. Next, pear and grapefruit notes from the aromatized wine on the sip fled to Bourbon, roast, and herbal bitterness on the swallow with an anise and char finish.
