This equal-parts cocktail balances bourbon's warmth against the bitter complexity of Amaro di Angostura and bright grapefruit notes, with lime juice providing sharp acidity. The result is a bittersweet, citrus-forward drink with herbal depth and a slightly salty finish that keeps the flavors in check. It drinks tart and bracing, with the whiskey providing just enough backbone to anchor the more assertive elements.
