    The murder of Pitchfork is also personal.

    Late to the party on this, but speaking from the belly of the beast that killed Pitchfork... (AND WHICH ALSO, BTW, KILLED GOURMET FFS) Maybe if you turned off your ad blocker, Conde Nast could've kept Pitchfork going a while longer. :shrug:

    But you can be pretty sure they'll do their best to keep the brand alive within GQ, as long as Pitchfork Festival continues to draw a crowd.

    I've been splitting the vermouth amount 50:50 sweet:dry (a la the Rosita) in a Boulevardier riff. 

    2 Bourbon (100 proof, natch)

    1 Campari

    .5  Sweet

    .5 Dry 

    Orange peel garish.

    Middle Aged Pal?

    The Rosita:

    • 1 1/2 oz. reposado tequila
    • 1/2 oz. Campari (or similar red bitter liqueur, not Aperol)
    • 1/2 oz. dry vermouth
    • 1/2 oz. sweet vermouth
    • Dash Angostura bitters
    • Dash orange bitters

    Stir in an ice-filled mixing glass and strain into an ice-filled Old Fashioned glass.  If you have, garnish with a twist of grapefruit.

    Sentimental favorite. Early days at Pegu Club, asked Phil Ward to make me something with Campari and he served this up.

  4. Late to the orange party, but when I have an orange to lend to a cocktail, I almost ALWAYS turn to the as-yet-unnamed tequila variation of a Monkey Gland that Phil Ward opened my mind to many years ago at Death&Co. 

    2 oz blanco tequila (or reposado, why not)
    1 oz orange juice
    1/2 oz grenadine (homemade unless you have some really good bottled stuff)
    dash absinthe
