Exceeded my expectations! And I was heavy with the Ango. Clonakilty whiskey, Fever Tree Refreshingly Light Ginger Ale (low sugar). Surprisingly moreish.

This is delicious with Glendalough Double Barrel Whiskey. There's a nice smokiness but it's not overpowering, and the ginger and bitters are well-balanced with the whiskey.

Easy to make and easy to drink. Perfect cocktail to go with a cold luncheon on Halloween. The ginger ale and bitters enhance the lovely flavours of the whiskey.

Lovely drink. Refreshing, beautiful and easy to make. Ginger ale and Jameson Irish Whiskey go just very well together in this perfect proportion. Angostura Aromatic Bitters, also. It already became one of my favorites. I will try with a with lemon peel for garnish next time.
