Garnish: One short compact lemon twist

1. 01

   Chill the coupe thoroughly, prepare the One short compact lemon twist, and ready the shaker.

2. 02

   Measure blended scotch, pear brandy, grapefruit juice, amaro, grapefruit bitters, lemon accurately and add them to a clean cocktail shaker.

3. 03

   Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid ice cubes and seal it firmly.

4. 04

   Pre-chill a coupe. Add the blended Scotch, pear brandy, grapefruit juice, amaro, and two dashes of grapefruit bitters to a shaker with solid ice. Shake hard for 10–15 seconds, fine-strain into the chilled coupe, express exactly one short strip of lemon peel over the drink, and retain it as a compact twist at the rim.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no small ice fragments reach the drink.

6. 06

   Finish with One short compact lemon twist and serve immediately.
