Smoldered Fashion

This classic cocktail, nearly forgotten in the shadows of modern mixology, is a testament to the time-honored tradition of fine spirits and balanced flavors. The Smoldered Fashion pays homage to the original Old-Fashioned recipe, featuring the rich depth of Old Medley 12 Year bourbon, accented by the warmth of Angostura bitters and the bright essence of Regans' orange bitters. A touch of Martinique cane syrup and a hint of Fidencio Clasico mezcal add a subtle twist to the timeless favorite.
