About
A split-base Old-Fashioned riff from Little Branch that draws inspiration from the Diamondback cocktail, marrying rye whiskey and applejack over a brown sugar and orange bitters foundation. The result is a richly layered, spirit-forward sipper that showcases Laird's Bonded Apple Brandy at its finest.
