2 oz. Woodford Reserve
¼ oz. Woodford Reserve Bourbon Smoked Simple Syrup
2 dashes Woodford Reserve Barrel Aged Aromatic Bitters
2 dashes absinthe or other anise-flavored spirit (Herbsaint or Pernod)
Twist of lemon or orange
In a glass or Boston shaker, combine bourbon, sugar syrup, and bitters over ice and stir for roughly 30 seconds with a long-handled bar spoon. In a pre-chilled glass, pour in the absinthe and swirl to coat the interior, pouring out any excess. Strain the cocktail into the glass, squeeze the lemon twist over the drink, rub the peel side onto the rim, then discard the twist or plop it in the glass.
