elixir soriano

2 oz Estesia Rye (Old Overholt 86°)
1/2 oz Amaro Lucano
1/2 oz Cocchi Americano
1 bsp (1/8 oz) Luxardo Maraschino

Stir with ice, strain into an old fashioned glass with ice, and garnish with an orange twist.
leon's manhattan elixir soriano
Two Saturdays prior, I was perusing sets of online recipe flashcards when I came across a stack for Leon's in Manhattan. The Elixir Soriano that currently appears on their menu called out to me. Once mixed, it showcased an orange, herbal, and caramel aroma. Next, pear, caramel, and orange notes on the sip welcomed rye, nutty cherry, and bitter orange flavors on the swallow. Overall, this combination came across akin to the Brooklyn and White Collar.

Made this tonight with Kina L' Aero D' Or instead of Cocchi Americano. It's a good one.
