A bold twist on the classic Old Fashioned. The depth of American whiskey, the delicate bitterness of Italian amaro, and the rich smoothness of Gabriel Boudier’s fig liqueur intertwine perfectly. A dash of aromatic bitters enhances the blend, while an expressed orange zest and a dried fig garnish elevate each sip.
A warm, elegant, and slightly spiced cocktail—perfect for those who appreciate deep, balanced flavors.
Shoutout to Matthew David Dakers (@matthew_dakers) for this brilliant creation !
