I wonder what kind of Madiera? So frustrating when recipes call for Sherry or (less commonly) Madiera without specifying the types, which can vary wildly in sweetness and flavor.

←

the style of madeira that most commonly has an orangey character is a bual if the drinks goal was to have only comparative fruit elements...

Bual would make sense sweetness-wise as well.

I just did a drink similar to some of the variants above. Knob Creek, Campari, and Noilly Prat sweet at a 2:1:1 ratio. No garnish as I don't have a lemon handy. It is extremely good and would be even better with the spicy and earthy notes of a good rye whiskey. It does retain a lot of the Campari flavor notes while moderating the bitterness. Yum!
