Love your channel, your energy, skills and knowledge. Thanks for bringing this one back to my coaster. Heads up though. You got the hashtag wrong at the end. No worries, I'm sure everyone figured it out. Thanks again for being you. Cheers
I'm really enjoying this channel, but what I like the most is you passion about what you're doing and actually explaining the difference between different alchols and the story behind its making. Cheers!!!
Yay! I'm a Kentucky native, still living and working in the Bluegrass, and I'm glad to see you getting into the history and deeper story of bourbon. Elijah Craig is a good one -- great to see it featured on the channel. If you ever depart from Rittenhouse rye, give Bulleit Rye a chance, it's excellent. And if you ever make it down to the Bluegrass, definitely go for a bourbon tour, they are very interesting and worth seeing! If you've never smelled the Angels Share, you are missing out on one of the most delicious smells in the world. (Heck, if you ever make it down here, I'll take you on a bourbon tour myself!)
So glad to see you used Elijah Craig! They have been my go-to for Old Fashions for years but no one else on YT seems to be promoting them. Great stuff!
I watched this video the other week and the next day bought a piece of a bourbon barrel stave and last night made a couple of these for me and some buddies. One of the best Old Fashioned cocktails I have had (and the best I have ever made)! Thank you for this recipe!
I got so excited when you pulled out the Black Walnut bitters. I freaking love those bitters. It adds so much character to dark liquor cocktails. I often pair it with an aged or spiced rum. Keep up the great work man. Your personality makes the videos a true joy to watch. Cheers brother
Thank you very much for all of your content. You and Az are the best! I've learned a ton from you and have enjoyed passing on the knowledge to friends and family. With the holidays rapidly approaching, I'm thinking about how to apply some of what I am learning to a larger crowd. Are there any shots you might recommend that are a bit classier than the word "shot" usually connotes? It could be a cool episode to show a few. Many thanks for any suggestions, and again, absolutely adore your channel!
At a recent trip to Boston, I had a walnut maple Manhattan and although there was no smoke presence, the combination of real maple syrup and the black walnut bitters add a nice complexity to the Manhattan. The first second you taste the alcohol and then the undercurrent of maple and walnut come into play but not overpowering the alcohol. As I love smoked foods, I will definitely seek this Old Fashion out.
Love this video! We do a variation of a smoked old fashioned at the tasting room I work at in Colorado. We use house made Tobacco bitters (no actual tobacco used), angostura bitters, a Maple nutmeg simple syrup we make with sarsaparilla root and cinnamon, and finally our signature bourbon. We burn oak boards on our bar and the guests always love it. As always love the content!
My favorite Old Fashioned recipe: 2oz Woodford Reserved, 1/4 rich demerara syrup, 2 dashes Angostura bitters, 2 dashes Regans Orange bitters. Stir in mixing glass with ice, strain into glass with a Death Star ice cube, garnish with an orange peel. I love your channel! You're like the Peter McKinnon of cocktails for me. Cheers!
If you can find it where you're at, High West's "Campfire" makes my favorite old fashioned. It's blasphemy in a bottle, being a blend of bourbon, rye and scotch... Balanced to perfection. I prefer a rich honey syrup, and just stick with ango alone.
I went to Blythe & Burrows in Portland, ME, where they essentially made two Old Fashioneds with one mix. The first half of it went into the rocks glass over a clear ice cube. The second half was poured into a bottle with smoke and sat corked until the first half was finished. Two very amazing and different drinks.
I love your channel dude. Much like I love learning new cocktail styles and history! You are naturally entertaining, funny and very easy to watch! Big fan.
I love to make this (with Elijah Craig) without smoke and including 15-20ml of a tawny port. Black walnut bitters and that maple syrup are a match made in heaven and Elijah Craig just makes a great OF no matter how you go about it. Awesome vid as always!
y'know, after watching these videos for a while, you've slowed down in your intros and simplified your approach, but in doing so, you've added more of your personality and charm going into the videos. granted, you might simply be tired, but it adds to my enjoyment of your content so thank you for another great video and great drink!
@@zacharymichener4687 so many. All depends on what you like. Suntory Toki is a nice one I'll mix with, but otherwise Hakushu 12 is one of my favorite whiskies if you can get your hands on it. Then there's the many expressions from Nikka - all of which I enjoy!
Anders, Your videos are top notch. You’re cocktail variations are the most balanced I’ve ever had. I am patiently awaiting the publication of a cocktail book ;)
I don't have a barrel stay to light up. I just use some maple wood chips. But I set the ice on a plate next to it. Once the glass is well smoked I slowly lift it and set it over the ice. That way the ice absorbs a bit of smoke as well.
I'm partial to a campari old fashioned. 2 oz Campari, 1/4 oz simple, 2 dashes orange bitters (the sweeter the better), stirred and served on a rock with a cherry and a thin orange slice.
I tried the Old Fashioned Smoke from Moxie's Bar and Grill. It's not bad. They use Canadian whiskey, brown sugar and I think orange bitters. It's not bad. I like smelling the smoke as I drink it. Your version of the drink sounds better.
Just a few weeks ago I had my first smoked Old Fashioned at the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City. It was superb. I wasn't surprised by the maple syrup (this is Canada after all; I've used it in old-fashioneds for years), but the smoke was amazing!! The server smoked the drink at my table by lowering a special wooden ring over the the already-filled glass that allowed her to torch the top of the ring - while smoke gradually appeared in the drink below - cool trick, and much safer than torching a plank!. Have you seen this specialized bar tool? [BTW, my drink used angostura bitters, which were fine. I've never heard of walnut bitters - how do they taste different? How would they be a better choice for this drink? Love your channel and everything you're doing!
Anders, this is going to be both amazingly delicious and fun!! I love Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon and I have made Old Fashioned cocktails with this lovely bourbon but never a Smoked Maple Old Fashioned!! And I can't wait to make this beauty and enjoy it! I know I will! The maple syrup is going to be amazing. I know where I can find the bitters and it is going to be a lot of fun torching some wood, which I will need to have a charred finish on, and then get some smoke!! I will leave the wood prep to a friend! I love this. I can't wait to whip up a couple of these beauties over the weekend!! I have some work to do to get everything ready! Terrific video! Cheers Anders!! 😃
Thanks, Christine! I hope you're able to whip this one up for the weekend - happy to hear you can get all the ingredients you'll need! And how nice to have a friend who can prep the wood for you! If only they could make you the cocktail too 😂 Enjoy your weekend with a tasty drink!! Cheers!
@@AndersErickson Thanks Anders! Oh, I love making the cocktails!! Lol!! But I am very happy to have a friend ensuring I can make the lovely smoke!! 😃 Enjoy the weekend!! I hope it's laid back and fun11
1:04 new to the channel and already loving it!! Love the “thats a lotta old fashioneds…. … …imma make one too!” 😂😂😂😂 Can scotch work for an old fashioned? I mean i know the cocktail world has a “do whatchu like” kinda vibe but still 😂😂😂
Definitely whipping out the blow torch at the Dark Lodge tonight. This year I started smoking simple syrup (in a smoker for 2 hours). I call it knacker sauce, and I use it to make a Knackered Old Fashioned. Still typically using Angostura with it. Amazing stuff.
@@AndersErickson i'm middle-aged (46) and "knackered" refers to being too old (The "knacker yard" is where the Brits put dogs and horses that were too old for their given occupation) so it's like an ode to being old. The patron cocktail of middle-aged men!
The October 11th newsletter sent me here. Managed to finally pick up some black walnut bitters today. Damn this is pleasant...perfect for a mid-western middle to late October.
Looks tasty. I made something similar recently, but my maple syrup is super light and can't really tell the difference in that and simple syrup, gonna get a better syrup and try again!
1. I have all the ingredients, well, wood chips for smoking anyway. Can’t wait to try this! 2. Curious if you use/make shrubs and if you so, could you share a top 3 list of go to/unique shrubs you enjoy? TIA!
I know this comment is a bit late, but this inspired me to make something really similar: A Smoked Ginger Old Fashioned. Used your ginger syrup recipe and some liquid smoke (no real smoker unfortunately) and a Japanese whiskey. Delicious, thank you!
Great recipe and a great cause! I'm making this cocktail tonight. My current favorite Old Fashioned recipe includes cayenne pepper and toasted pecan-infused Buffalo Trace bourbon, an idea from Death & Co.
Anders, man it’s great to see another bourbon cocktail. My favorite. This looks very good. I have actually tried maple syrup in an old fashioned before when I did a bacon wash bourbon. Maple gave it another flavor profile for sure. Will you ever make a Bentons old fashioned for the show? Keep it up man
This inspired me to smoke a glass in my Traeger grill, then build the drink. Also, smoking orange slices in the grill adds more smokey goodness. Happy Fall everyone!
Thoroughly enjoy your channel. It is my favorite and now, outside of tiki, my only regularly watched cocktail vids. My go-to OF's have been heavily influenced by you. I almost always have orange vs. the lemon paste method. Nevertheless and I say this with peace and love, this smoke every drink fad is really trigging something in me. I'm going to be glad when it passes. (Then again, maybe I need to talk to someone about it.) Cheers!
I just had a smoked black walnut old fashioned tonight before seeing this video. I put a cap of tonic in my old fashioned. Just adds a bit of bite to it.
Searched for this after I acquired a smoking kit for cocktails (by the glass). Maple Old Fashion’s are already my jam, and the couple smoked bourbon cocktails I’ve tried at local nosheries have been amazeballs of 🔥. Curious to see what torch you use, as my loosely goosey necked butane one decided to quit right before I could use it, for this very thing! Meh!😖 I have a MAP torch, but that feels like overkill. Anywho, on to the vid, huzzah! 🔥 💨 🥃
I just wanna say that i love your channel as much i love cocktails, you're awesome: Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing nice recipes; i was wondering, do you know some cocktails with mezcal? Greetings from Mexico. Cheers!
I made a Rye, ginger syrup with Peychaud's Bitters Old Fashioned before watching this video. I made my ginger syrup a couple of weeks ago after watching Ander's syrup making video awhile ago.
I've seen this done with little chips of wood. Those chips looked like they had been slightly charred before so they may be from an old barrel as well. The bartender had a little cast iron plate, and she would burn one tiny wood chip on it. It seemed safer and more practical to me - less bulky, if you will. Bringing in a whole barrel panel makes for a nice video though, haha!
@@Nasosdag haha! Well if you have to make 20 of them in a night, you probably want a safer, more efficient option. But yeah, lighting a whole barrel panel on fire is pretty awesome
Hope you give this one a try! What’s your favorite Old Fashioned recipe?
Grab the spirits I use at Curiada! 👉 bit.ly/Andersbottles
There are a lot of ads these days. Congratulations, Andrera!! Your chanel is developing lot!!
Where did you get the stave?
My wife doesn't like Angostura bitters, so I use sassafras and sorghum bitters on her old fashioned.
Love your channel, your energy, skills and knowledge. Thanks for bringing this one back to my coaster. Heads up though. You got the hashtag wrong at the end. No worries, I'm sure everyone figured it out. Thanks again for being you. Cheers
Congrats on the great success of your channel. Well deserved!
I'm really enjoying this channel, but what I like the most is you passion about what you're doing and actually explaining the difference between different alchols and the story behind its making. Cheers!!!
Appreciate that, Anastasiia! Cheers to you! 🥃
That shot of the slow-mo glass flip with the smoke is smooth af.
"You still smell like the campfire from the night before, and you have pancakes!!" That is a compelling description! Thanks so much!
The maple syrup + black walnut bitters has been my "go-to" fall Old Fashioned; I'm so glad you made this!
Smoking the glass looks amazing! I can't imagine how good that must smell when you add the rest of the old fashioned.
Very nice, Maple and fire, All you need now is some plaid!!
Good call, David! I missed it this time 😂
This is one of my favorite cocktails, tastes so damn good for relatively minor effort. A win-win!
Yay! I'm a Kentucky native, still living and working in the Bluegrass, and I'm glad to see you getting into the history and deeper story of bourbon.

Bulleit Rye is absolute garbage. Worst Rye in existence. Hudson & Woodenville are the top.
@@joewas2225 dont be a jerk about it and people might listen more
I think bourbon cocktails are my favorites, and this includes science. I just asked my husband to pick me up a flame thrower.
Think you may want to call it a torch. A flame thrower is something that would be used in an Aliens film ; )

Hi Chris, have you tried the Woodford reserve double oaked? Would like to know how it differs from the cheaper Woodford Reserve.
This is art. Great shots, amazing drinks and overall fantastic content!
Love a good smoked maple Old Fashioned. I use cherry wood, Ango and Regans. I’ll need to try it with the black walnut.
Perfection. Never heard of Black Walnut Bitters so will buy some of those. Smoking the glass makes so much difference.
I love an Old Fashiobed and maple, so can't t wait to try this one!
This has been a great channel find for me!! I am trying to expand my cocktail horizon and this channel is dope for it

Your videos are top notch. You’re cocktail variations are the most balanced I’ve ever had. I am patiently awaiting the publication of a cocktail book ;)
One of my favorite videos of yours so far.
Best part...Az at 5:17... "Oooo..." 🥰
I’ve made a similar version with standard bitters, but I smoked water and made cubes with it
One of your best videos Anders..
I don't have a barrel stay to light up. I just use some maple wood chips. But I set the ice on a plate next to it. Once the glass is well smoked I slowly lift it and set it over the ice. That way the ice absorbs a bit of smoke as well.
Use Whistle Pig Maple Barrel Aged maple syrup if you want to take it up a notch! Great video Anders. We watch you weekly.
Elijah Craig Small Batch is my go to Bourbon for Old Fashioneds, I've tried a bunch of other ones at similar price points and nothing compares for me.
Have you tried the Woodford double oak?
@@True_Blood_89 Yes, I like it but it's nearly double the price of Elijah Craig Small Batch, at least where I live.
I’ve always been staunchly pro sugar cube and anti simple syrup when it comes to Old Fashioneds but this … this changes everything. 🥃 🍁 🤯
NEVER mixed cocktails before but I'm learning because I love to cook so I've gotta learn drinks!
I'm partial to a campari old fashioned. 2 oz Campari, 1/4 oz simple, 2 dashes orange bitters (the sweeter the better), stirred and served on a rock with a cherry and a thin orange slice.
That sound wonderful! Thanks for the share, Zack!
This one of my favorite drinks. A great variant is to have a nice thick piece of maple bacon with it.
