Rod & Hammer’s SLO Stills Old Fashioned bottles the classic cocktail on the distillery’s own California whiskey at a serious 70 proof.
San Luis Obispo’s Rod & Hammer’s builds this ready-to-pour Old Fashioned the way a bartender would — their California whiskey, bittered and lightly sweetened — and bottles it at 35% ABV, far closer to a real stirred cocktail than most RTDs. Pour over a big cube, twist an orange peel, done.
Tasting Notes
Caramel and oak from the whiskey base with bitters’ spice and a balanced touch of sweetness; warm, classic Old Fashioned finish.
