Ritual

Let the smoke and sweetness settle before the next sip. This one rewards patience.

Story

Old Fashioned recipes are about subtle shifts. Roasted pineapple brings caramel depth, and chile adds a low heat.

Worm salt creates a savory finish that makes the mezcal feel even more elegant.

This is a slow drink — smoky, sweet, and grounded.

Notes & Variations

  • Use chocolate bitters for extra depth.
