Savor the Burn:
Gold Rush
July 07, 2023 by W2
Simple, elegant, and distinct. The Honey in this cocktail, married with the lemon juice, makes this cocktail shine brighter than the sun. You'll want to make a few of these, so fair warning. This is a cocktail that exemplifies the idea of why a higher proof whiskey makes for a better cocktail. This Noah's Mill hails from on high at 114.3 Proof! Mixed up, there is no burn, but the bourbon shines through, cutting through the lemon and wrapped in a warm blanket of honey! The Rosemary sprig on top adds a new dimension to the nose as well as palette. Enjoy!
made with: Noah's Mill Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

The idea is pretty simple. As we taste and review various whiskies, we will be making a few cocktails along the way and even tweaking as we see fit to give them a new perspective.
