Godfather

The Godfather gets a bad rap, but it’s a stunner when you use the right ingredients. The gentle, maritime smoke from the Talisker 10 beautifully checks the rich, authentic almond sweetness of the Luxardo Amaretto. It's a simple, sophisticated cocktail that absolutely sings with just two bottles.
