Tips & Suggestions
Preparation Tip 1
Use a blended scotch with a subtle smoky profile—this allows for balance when mixed with sweet vermouth and bitters, so as not to overwhelm the drink with the spirit.
Serving Tip 1
Express an orange peel around the glass rim prior to serving to add necessary oils which augment aroma without introducing dilution by juice or upsetting the drink’s profile.
