Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place a coupe or Nick & Nora glass in the freezer or fill a rocks glass with ice and water to chill while you prepare the drink.
Combine ingredients
In a mixing glass add 2 oz Michter's Bourbon, 1 oz sweet vermouth, 1/4 oz Luxardo Maraschino liqueur, 2 dashes Angostura bitters and 1 dash orange bitters.
Add ice and stir
Fill the mixing glass with large, cold ice cubes (enough to come near the top). Stir gently and steadily for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 full strokes) until the mixture is well chilled, slightly diluted, and silky.
Prepare glass
If you chilled your serving glass with ice and water, discard the ice and water now. If you used the freezer, remove the glass from the freezer.
Express and garnish
Take one piece of orange peel. Hold it over the cocktail and firmly twist/express the peel to release oils across the surface, then rub the rim of the glass with the peel and drop it into the drink as garnish.
Serve
Serve immediately. Note tasting profile: rich, slightly sweet and bitter with bright citrus aromatics from the orange oil.
