Fistful of Bourbon
A new Bourbon is coming to Texas, Fistful of Bourbon is from William Grant & Sons, the same people behind successful Scotch brands Glenfiddich and The Balvenie. Fistful of Bourbon is made from a blend of five straight American bourbons aged at least two years.
While I don't drink a lot of Bourbon, I DO enjoy an Old Fashioned now and then. On this HOT Texas August afternoon I also did appreciate the Fistful Smash. It was so refreshing and easy to approach.
Fistful Smash
2 parts Fistful of Bourbon
½ part grapefruit oleo (GF infused simple syrup)
½ part fresh lemon juice
10 loose mint leaves
Charlotte Voisey (seen above) was on hand to mix the drinks and discuss flavor profiles.
Fistful of Bourbon is scheduled for sales to begin Sept 1st with a retail price of $25 for a 750ml.
