Recipe:
2 oz. Lustau Oloroso Don Nuno
¾ oz Rhum Clement V.S.O.P.
½ oz. tellicherry pepper-infused maple syrup
2 dashes Berkshire Mountain Coffee Bitters
Stir over ice and garnish with orange zest.

“It’s a cigar cocktail nodding to the dry earth-and-spice-driven undertones of the oloroso wine, which means ‘scented’ in Spanish,” described Bunnewith.
