Dantes in Fernet

A autumnal drink that balances the gentle malt of Speyside Scotch against the bitter menthol punch of Fernet Branca. Blood orange brings a tart, slightly bittersweet citrus note that plays well with the rich sweetness of maple syrup, while mole bitters add a subtle undercurrent of warm spice and chocolate. The result is complex but approachable—bitter, fruity, and faintly smoky, with a lingering herbal finish.
