The Old Fashioned cocktail is one of the oldest and most beloved cocktails in the world. Its origins can be traced back to the early 1800s, when it was simply known as the “whiskey cocktail.” Over time, bartenders began to add a few simple ingredients to enhance the flavour of the whiskey, and thus the Old Fashioned was born.
