We will also be including a Craft Cocktail Whiskey Cocktail from Bar 1661; you can select one from this line up including their special holiday edition 'Festive Old Fashioned':
- Festive Old Fashioned. The Festive Old Fashioned is a slow winter sipper, made using Bullit Bourbon and seasonal flavours of fig, caramel, orange spiced bitters and a dash of PX sherry.
- Old Fashioned. Made to its classic recipe dating back nearly 200 years, there has never been a cocktail with such a fitting name: The Old Fashioned. American whiskey, sugar and bitters - nothing more, nothing less.
- Banana Old Fashioned. A tropical twist on everyone's favourite whiskey cocktail, the Banana Old Fashioned has a Caribbean feel with some overproof rum, banana liqueur and chocolate bitters, all swimming in Bulleit Rye Whiskey.
- Whiskey Sour. The Whiskey Sour is part of a large family of drinks made by mixing lemon, sugar and bitters to your favourite spirit. The original recipe has been tweaked by using Bulleit Bourbon blended with Roe and Co Irish Whiskey and leaving the egg white out.
