A timeless serve, elevated by exceptional ice
The Old Fashioned is defined by balance: a quality whiskey, subtle sweetness, aromatic bitters and a single crystal-clear cube. Its simplicity leaves nowhere to hide, making every ingredient — including the ice — essential to the final serve.
Ingredients
• 50 ml bourbon or rye whiskey
• 10 ml demerara syrup
• 2 dashes Angostura bitters
• 1 fresh orange peel
• 1 Velour Ice Signature Cube, preferably 55 or 60 mm
Method
1. Add the whiskey, demerara syrup and bitters to a mixing glass filled with ice.
2. Stir until properly chilled and lightly diluted.
3. Strain into a chilled rocks glass over one large crystal-clear cube.
4. Express the oils from the orange peel over the drink and use it as garnish.
The perfect ice
A single large Signature Cube chills the drink gradually while limiting dilution. Its crystal-clear appearance allows the warm colour of the whiskey to remain the visual focus of the serve.
