It's a long journey from the original Old Fashioned to this cocktail. But we can be thankful to the travelers who brought us here. A wonderfully balanced and simple yet complex drink.

Very nice. The Bianco Vermouth works well with the Mezcal and Ancho Reyes Liqueur. Initially a touch sweet but the chile heat builds. I am glad it’s not called a Martini!
