The Old Fashioned - the Men's Drink

The classy counterpart of the gentlemen

 There are legends implied in the name of this cocktail. It is the manliest cocktail known ever, famous with its strong and mature character. The Old Fashioned is the definition of What Bitter Cocktail Is.

 To be honest, it's not the best you can have from the mixology, but for me - that is the best cocktail. I love it, because of the classiness it implies and the delicious flavours that come with the amazing looks in the glass. This one won my heart long time ago, take it to heart and do not waste time to make Old Fashioned.
