The Old Fashioned is a classic — and Spiceology Vadouvan takes it somewhere unexpected. Warm, aromatic, and subtly complex, this cocktail from Aaron Fish uses a homemade Vadouvan syrup to layer in earthy spice that makes every sip feel like a discovery. Bold enough to convert bourbon drinkers to rye.
