Piper Plane
Scotch whisky adds delicate peaty notes to this excellent riff on the usually bourbon-based Paper Plane

I used Johnnie Walker Black for this. I think the peatiness of the Scotch does a better job of balancing the citrus and sweetness (compared to Bourbon or Rye), while also adding a new layer of complexity... Certainly a nice drink for anyone who likes Scotch.
