Old Fashioned recipe

In an old-fashioned glass, soak one sugar cube with many drops of angostura bitters, two drops of Regan’s orange bitters and one drop of whiskey barrel-aged bitters. Muddle the sugar into a paste and drop in a strip of orange zest. Add 4.5cl of Hudson Baby bourbon whiskey and fill the glass with ice cubes while stirring slowly.

Tip: Laying the soaked sugar cube on a clean cotton towel before dropping into the glass helps to absorb excess bitters. And don’t rush. Slow play is the secret ingredient.
