Garnish: Exactly one short narrow orange zest twist at the rim

1. 01

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

2. 02

   Measure 20 ml aged blended rum, 20 ml Spanish-style brandy, 10 ml blended Scotch, 5 ml peated single-malt Scotch, 5 ml Pedro Ximénez sherry, 5 ml orange amaro, and one dash aromatic bitters into a mixing glass.

3. 03

   Fill the mixing glass generously with solid cold ice.

4. 04

   Stir steadily for 25–30 seconds until the dense, spirit-forward mixture is very cold and sufficiently diluted.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled Nick & Nora glass so the dark glossy surface remains free of ice fragments.

6. 06

   Express the orange oils over the drink, affix the single compact twist at the rim, and serve without another garnish.
