Milk & Honey alum and proprietor of Attaboy, Sam Ross, is the brain behind this modern classic. Bourbon-based and firmly in the whiskey sour category of cocktails, the herbal notes provided by the Amaro Nonino and equal-parts preparation of this drink also bring to mind the much-revered Last Word. In the 10 years since its creation, it has gained notoriety among a wide number of bartenders, and can now be found on cocktail menus worldwide.

Ingredients
¾ ounce Bourbon
¾ ounce lemon juice
¾ ounce Aperol
