The original recipe calls for aromatic bitters, but this deliciously sherry-infused Rum Old Fashioned is better with the zesty freshness of orange bitters...
A fascinating and intense drink. It is definitely more than a sum of its parts. It starts with cocoa and coffee notes which leads to some rum funkiness and then on to orange flavors. It mellows nicely over time with some dilution from the ice. I think someone would be hard pressed to guess the ingredients. I made with Smith and Cross rum.
