The Notorious Fig is a Manhattan-style cocktail with a hint of bitterness. Choose a medium-bitter amaro, like Montenegro.
The Amaro Montenegro is a traditional amaro from Bologna, Italy. It is a secret blend that uses six tasting notes and is an all-occasion herbal liqueur. At the same time, Irish whiskey tastes light and fruity, with undertones of vanilla and a softly floral aroma.
