A refined yet flavorful Old Fashioned riff dedicated to the great Bill Withers (RIP) with notes of vanilla and cherry with a floral aroma 🥃🍒🌺 The blend of Japanese whiskies delivers a base with notes of pears, stonefruit, vanilla, and subtle notes of baking spice that work in delicious harmony with the fruit and floral notes of the lychee liqueur. The vanilla liqueur and cherry/vanilla bitters boost those notes while the essential oils from the lemon twist add a fresh citrus aroma as you sip 1 oz Blended Japanese Whisky (Suntory Toki is a great option) .5 oz Nikka Whisky from the Barrel (cask strength Japanese whisky with notes of baking spice and poached pears) .5 oz Nikka Coffey Grain Whisky (Japanese grain whisky with incredible round notes of vanilla custard) Tsp Lychee Liqueur (Giffard) Tsp Vanilla Syrup or Liqueur (Giffard or Licor 43 if the latter) 2 dashes Bittercube Cherry Bark Vanilla Bitters Stir with ice and strain into a chilled double rocks glass with a large ice cube.
