Opened a bottle of Glenlivet Nadurra I've had hanging around....very yummy. Made me think it was perfect for the Scotch Old-Fashioned I've been thinking about. So:
1.5 oz Glenlivet Nadurra
0.25 oz water*
0.25 oz simple syrup
3 dr Cointreau
3 dr. Fee Bros Whisky Barrel Aged Bitter
Serve in a double old-fashioned glass with ice and a wide piece of orange peel. Quite nice. *I add water because the whisky is cask strenght, and I serve it over a single huge chunk of ice, so there is no time for the proof to appropriately correct.
Nadurra has those nice citrus notes that I think the Cointreau appropriately brings out, and the Fee Bros bitters highlights the rich cake and treacle notes. Quite nice, if I do say so myself.
