Probably one of the best cocktails I’ve tried for both Lillet Blanc and Suze, made with Dewar’s 8 year old mizunara oak cask finish. Couldn’t really work out the smouldering cinnamon though… my whole house smells vaguely of cinnamon but the stick itself just smelled like smoke.

Simply delightful. I used Monkey Shoulder and am looking forward to the nuances afforded with the use of different blended Scotch.
