1 1/2 oz The Sexton Single Malt Irish Whiskey (Knappogue Castle Single Malt)
1/2 oz Campari
1/2 oz Tempus Fugit Crème de Noyaux
1 dash Bitter Truth Creole Bitters (Peychaud's)

Stir with ice, strain into an old fashioned glass with a large ice cube, and garnish with grapefruit oil from a twist.Two Saturdays ago, I reached for my copy of Paddy Drinks: The World of Modern Irish Whiskey Cocktails and stopped flipping the pages when I reached the Broadway Junction. Jillian Vose's creation at The Dead Rabbit in Manhattan was described as "a Boulevardier meets a Japanese Cocktail with a twist." Overall on paper, the whiskey and Campari modified by liqueur reminded me of her Psycho Killer in structure. Here, the Broadway Junction expressed a grapefruit, nutty cherry, and orange aroma. Next, a semi-sweet citrussy sip led into whiskey, almond, and bitter orange flavors on the swallow.
