ABOUT
This old fashioned variation was created in 2009 by Jason Littrell. A patron asked Littrell to make a drink that tasted like “the great American novel.” This then led to him combining Kentucky bourbon with apple brandy from America’s oldest distillery. A little scotch gives the drink a slight smoky undertone. Cheers y’all!
