Old Fashioned

The Old Fashioned is the original cocktail in the literal sense — spirit, sugar, water and bitters — the simple formula that defined the word cocktail in the nineteenth century, served as a bittersweet, whiskey-forward sipper over ice with an expressed citrus peel.

Spirit-forward and bittersweet, the Old Fashioned leads with the whiskey's vanilla, caramel and toasted oak, lightly sweetened by the dissolved sugar and given a dry, spicy backbone of Angostura baking spice. A bright twist of expressed orange or lemon oil floats over the top. The texture is silky and warming, kept long and slowly diluting by the large ice cube, finishing dry, oaky and warm with a faint citrus-bitters edge.
