Via Carota Old Fashioned (37.5cl, 33.5%)

A ready-to-drink Old Fashioned from New York, built on four-year rye whiskey with aromatic bitters, orange and brown sugar. The rye is matured in charred oak casks, giving the drink a spicier backbone than many bottled Old Fashioneds. It is designed to be poured over a large ice cube and garnished with an expressed orange peel. The aroma leads with baking spices and charred oak, followed by orange peel and dried fruits, with vanilla and subtle citrus. The palate is rye-driven with brown sugar sweetness and marzipan-like richness, developing caramel and red currant with warming spices. The finish is long, with cinnamon and clove tapering into citrus peel and brown sugar.
