Bardstown

A bold, spirit-forward cocktail where spicy 100-proof rye meets applejack and Cointreau, giving orchard fruit sweetness and a bright citrus lift. It pours a clear amber into a chilled cocktail glass, finished with an orange twist and aromatic bitters, great for anyone who enjoys boozy, complex stirred cocktails with lively citrus notes.

  • 1 oz Laird's® Applejack Brandy
  • 0.5 oz Cointreau® Orange Liqueur
  • 2 dash Orange Bitters
  • 1 dash Angostura® Bitters

  2. Pour the Rittenhouse 100proof Rye whiskey into the glass.
  3. Add Laird's Applejack® brandy to the mix.
  4. Introduce Cointreau® orange liqueur for sweetness.
  5. Add the orange bitters to enhance the flavor profile.
  6. Include a dash of Angostura® bitters for depth.
  7. Stir the ingredients thoroughly until well-chilled.
  8. Strain the mixture into a cocktail glass.
  9. Garnish with an orange twist for a final touch.
