We love drinking bourbon whiskey. We enjoy it neat, on the rocks, or (in the case of cask strength) with a splash or two of water. To add to that, we like mixing with bourbon. We love a classic bourbon and sparkling water on a hot day. To add to that, the sweet corn, vanilla, charred oak, and dried fruit flavors mix well in a wide variety of cocktails.

The Treacle No.1 is an Old Fashioned riff with a base of dark rum, combined with simple syrup, aromatic bitters, and an apple cider float. This simple cocktail came together in 1990s London, care of the late Dick Bradsell, the influential bartender behind modern classic creations like the Espresso Martini and the Bramble. Essentially a rum Old Fashioned with an apple cider float, the Treacle No.1 (sometimes just referred to as the Treacle) is one of Bradsell’s lesser-known but equally delicious creations.

This rum Old Fashioned, from the legendary bartender behind the Espresso Martini, tastes like a sticky toffee pudding.

I'm Italian and a chef, so most days, I'm down to do things the long way, like simmer pasta sauce all day or make my own bread. It's partially how I was raised and partially what has been hammered into me working for nearly a decade in professional kitchens.
