Surprisingly, this is a typeface called Catanzaro Ligature Display Font.

 

Yes, it is on Creative Market. Sadly, for some reason, I do have it bookmarked (God knows why, since I don't find it particularly well-drawn).

 

For something with a more hand-drawn look and similar nested ligature pairs, try Tropikana Plus.

Thank you so much!

You are quite welcome. In the right hands, I think Catanzaro could be made to look quite good—it just feels a bit wonky in places.

Bested again by Kevin! Amazing catch.

I do still contend that this effect would be much better in the hands of a lettering artist.

Just to clarify, I upvoted the lettering artist suggestion.

My strange tastes in Creative Market typefaces are not to be encouraged....

There is no indication that this is a font. It may be, but this sort of effect is more readily achieved through custom lettering.
