Handmade Cocktail Company – Proud To Be Old Fashioned

August 31, 2011 by Gary Leave a Comment

"The Old Fashioned"

"The Old Fashioned"

Like Bourbon?

Like cocktails?

Fed up of all the hassle of buying the ingredients, only to get home to find you’ve forgotten an essential one?

Not too keen on preparing it?

Then read this!

The Handmade Cocktail Company is proud to announce the launch of its newest pre-bottled cocktail, The Old Fashioned.

Made using a superb rye-rich bourbon, a secret blend of bitters and the finest orange peel – you can now enjoy this classic cocktail without having to buy all the separate ingredients.

Cool!

To serve, simply stir with ice and garnish with orange peel.

That’s more like it!

The Old Fashioned joins The Handmade Cocktail Company’s range of classic “bottle-aged” cocktails, which includes Gin Martini, Manhattan, Negroni and others.

The cocktails are all made from the best ingredients, which are expertly mixed to classic recipes, allowing the flavours to marry in the bottle. The result is six perfectly balanced drinks which have already received a multitude of excellent reviews from the press and the public alike.

And you don’t have to leave your comfy chair to enjoy it!

The Old Fashioned and The Handmade Cocktail Company’s other cocktails are available online from Master of Malt.

“Bottoms Up!”
