One of the best things about an original cocktail is the name, and with a handle like The Smoking Scotsman, you can't go wrong with this winter cocktail. However, it is not the easiest to try replicating at home. From mixologist David Boxwill, the mixed drink is available at restaurant and bar American Cut.
In addition to requiring Chivas 12 blended scotch whiskey, this winter cocktail also needs a crème brûlée torch and a maple plank to go along with the necessary maple bitters (other bitters can also be used). Better stirred, not shaken, the Smoking Scotsman can be garnished with orange or lemon peel. The alcoholic beverage is perfect for staying warm this season.
