    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.

    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!)

    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.

    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.

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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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!

      Hope you enjoy the cocktail, and appreciate the comment. I haven't touched on shrubs yet - you've got me thinking 🤔

    not sure if this will get read but where to find charred barrel wood? Looking online returned mostly whole barrels (?)

    If anyone has a smoker, you can also put water in a glass pyrex dish and smoke it for about 30 mins. Then freeze the water and use the cubes in your drink.

    Black Walnut bitters are my FAVE for an old fashioned...and a smoked one is simply heaven! I will have to try it with maple syrup. Question....besides smoking the board....any recommendations on other cocktail smokers? I've been looking into buying one, reading reviews, but have not chosen one.

    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!

    There is a typo in the hashtag at 00:00:54, should be #OLDFASHIONEDWEEK
    It’s a great initiative, so we all better get that hashtag right :)
    PS. Awesome recipe! Tomorrow I’m making this plus my own OF version with 35ml whisky and 10ml ruby port. I just love that combination!

    A(nother) beautiful cocktail, would love to try it! One of my favourite memories involves fire and alcohol: Feuerzangenbowle with a group of friends. If you've never tried it, definitely recommend :D

    • @AndersErickson
      @AndersErickson  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I can't say I've tried Feuerzangenbowle, but I've very curious! It does sound like something you'd want to have a group of friends for!
