Kansas City knows a thing or two about whiskey, and boy howdy, this Bottled in bond offering was the perfect pair for this cocktail! On recommendation from thier own website, we did a 50/50 mix of campari and aperol to give it a hair sweetening to balance the savoriness of this cocktail.

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.
