  • Expected a smoky OF. Not far off but well integrated and interesting.
  • Probably my favorite old fashioned variation. Great especially for the fall. I don't find it too hot or raw, but I love Laird's Bonded, which admittedly, does take the foreground.
  • Made with calvados, Weller, and Bowmore Legend. Surprisingly raw finish.

Comments

Made exactly as listed. Was a bit rough - Laird's, I've found, is a bit too hot/rough as a primary spirit for me. Works well when supporting and with balancing sweetness (particularly maple notes, demerara syrup, apple juice//cider).
