Garnish: Exactly one short narrow lemon-zest twist at the rim

1. 01

   Pre-chill one clear Nick and Nora glass and cut exactly one short narrow lemon-zest twist.

2. 02

   Measure 30 ml cognac, 30 ml rye whiskey, 15 ml light vermouth amaro, 10 ml falernum liqueur, and three dashes aromatic bitters into a mixing glass.

3. 03

   Fill the mixing glass with solid cold ice and place a bar spoon against the inside wall.

4. 04

   Stir smoothly for 20–25 seconds until the deep copper-amber mixture is very cold and properly diluted.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled Nick and Nora glass so the surface remains clear of ice fragments.

6. 06

   Express the single lemon twist over the cocktail, set it neatly at the rim, and serve without another garnish.
