Filby Cocktail

Thought you all might like to try this:
1-1/4 oz. gin
1/2 oz. Amaretto
1/2 oz. dry vermouth
1/4 oz. Campari

Combine all ingredients in a shaker glass with ice and stir until well chilled. Strain into a cocktail glass. Express the oils of a large orange zest, rub the zest around the rim and drop it in the drink, and flambé.

The Filby Cocktail won the 1979 Paris bartending competition and was created by British bartender Peter Brennan.

    It's easy on this drink to get heavy on the Amaretto, but don't.... the drink becomes much too sweet. Measure the ingredients if you have to and enjoy this cocktail as it's meant to be.
