Bourbon Old Fashioned
The Bourbon Old Fashioned is proof that great things stand the test of time. Dating back to the early 1800s, this cocktail keeps it simple: bourbon, sugar, bitters, and a twist of orange—no frills, just pure, spirit-forward perfection. Stirred over ice and served in a lowball glass, the Old Fashioned is smooth, rich, and just the right amount of sweet. Whether you’re sipping it in a leather chair or at a lively bar, this is whiskey drinking at its finest.
