Personally, I’ve been digging Rittenhouse BIB for my old fashions. Hasn’t disappointed me yet.

First thing is you need a muddler
Get a highball glass out
In goes a half slice of orange, a cherry and some simple syrup.
Muddle.
You want to make sure you muddle the orange rind to release the orange oils and essence.
Add a couple or so dashes of bitters of your choice. I use both Peychaud and Angostura bitters.
Add ice and top with bourbon.
Stir and serve.

1/2oz simple syrup
3 dashes angostura bitters
2 dashes orange bitters
1 dash cherry bitters
fill with ice
stir 20 times and strain into a rocks glass over a single large cube.
express a swath of orange peel over the glass and rub the rim.
Garnish with the orange swath and luxardo cherry.
