Chocolate Rye Malt Old Fashioned
This spirit was meant to be turned into an Old Fashioned. Those warm, rich, chocolate notes are sent into a joyous overdrive. It sings with an orange twist, we’re quite partial to some walnut bitters too, have a play.
Ingredients:
- 5ml sugar syrup
- 2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters (and we’re talking proper dashes here, not drops)
Method:
Stir all the ingredients over ice, tasting as you go. If Chocolate Rye Malt Whisky is a little assertive for your palate give it a touch longer in the mixing glass to provide some additional dilution.
Strain into a chilled rocks glass over ice, garnish with an orange twist.
