anyone's shadow

1 oz Rye Whiskey (Rittenhouse)
1 oz Smith & Cross Rum
3/4 oz Amaro Meletti
1/4 oz Benedictine
Stir with ice, strain into a Nick & Nora glass, and garnish with a lemon twist.Two Wednesdays ago, I decided to make an intriguing recipe that Daniel Zajik had posted on Instagram called Anyone's Shadow. Daniel cited the origin as the Rum Club in Portland, Oregon, and when I inquired where he got the recipe, he replied, "from a bartender at Rum Club while I was drinking it there. My hunch is that it was created by Michael Shea who owns Rum Club." Since rye, Meletti, and Benedictine appear in Sour format in the Counterfeit Rifle, I had a hunch that a stirred version would be great as well. Once prepared, Anyone's Shadow came forward with lemon, caramel, and rum funk aromas. Next, the caramel continued on into the sip where it was chased by rye, funky rum, herbal, pineapple, and floral flavors on the swallow.
