Metod
  1. 1

    Fat-wash the bourbon first: render bacon fat, stir 45ml of the warm liquid fat into a 700ml bottle of bourbon, leave it at room temperature for four hours, then freeze it overnight and strain the solidified fat off through a coffee filter.

  2. 2

    Combine 60ml of the washed bourbon with the maple syrup in a mixing glass.

  3. 3

    Add two dashes of Angostura bitters.

  4. 4

    Add ice and stir for 25–30 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Strain over a large clear ice cube and express an orange peel over the surface.

Från bartendern

Created by Don Lee at PDT in New York in 2007, using Benton's smoked bacon from Tennessee. It made fat-washing a standard bar technique. The maple is not decorative — it is the bridge between the smoke and the whiskey, and demerara syrup does not do the same job.

Cocktails som den här

Espresso Old Fashioned
Bourbon Whiskey

Espresso Old Fashioned

Oak, vanilla and char from the bourbon with the espresso sitting directly on top of the barrel notes, so it drinks darker and drier than an Old Fashioned rather than sweeter.

Oaxaca Old Fashioned
Reposado Tequila

Oaxaca Old Fashioned

Roasted agave and campfire smoke over the reposado's vanilla and oak, barely sweetened, with the flamed orange adding a caramelised citrus top note.

Classic Old-Fashioned
Bourbon

Classic Old-Fashioned

Spirit-forward and warming, with rich bourbon at its core, balanced by subtle caramel sweetness and the aromatic spice of bitters. Fragrant citrus oils from the orange peel add a bright, floral lift, while the finish is smooth, gently bitter, and deeply satisfying.

Fanciulli
Bourbon Whiskey

Fanciulli

Menthol and bitter bark arriving well before the whiskey does, then bourbon vanilla underneath and a long, cooling, almost medicinal finish.
