Bold whiskey backbone with bright lemon and aromatic anise from the Ricard and Peychaud's bitters; a whisper of sugar softens the edges. It’s a warm amber, spirit-forward sipper finished with a lemon twist, concentrated, aromatic, and distinctly New Orleans, perfect for those who enjoy intense, balanced cocktails.
