The Bitter Secret of Old Pal

The Bitter Secret of Old Pal

This classic cocktail hides a bold complexity behind its simple name. It features a perfect one-to-one-to-one ratio of rye whiskey, dry vermouth, and Campari.

Created during the prohibition era in Paris, this drink is a close cousin to the famous Negroni. By swapping the traditional gin for spicy rye whiskey, the drink gains a deep, sophisticated heat. The dry vermouth and bitter Campari balance that intensity perfectly. It remains a favorite for those who enjoy a cocktail with a serious, grown-up bite.
