Old Fashioned Week 2021: Celebrate With Angel’s Envy WhiskeyBy Angelica Malin
Leading Louisville-made American whiskey ANGEL’S ENVY has collaborated with Batman-inspired bar Park Row, to create a limited-edition twist on the world’s best-selling classic cocktail for Old Fashioned Week, The Gentle-Man.
The classic Old Fashioned recipe of bourbon, simple syrup and bitters has been reimagined, using ANGEL’S ENVY Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey finished in Port Wine Barrels – with its notes of ripe fruits, maple syrup and toasted nuts – a Gonzales Byass Pedro Ximénez and maple syrup nectar and black walnut bitters to finish, before being garnished with a red grape.
Where: Park Row, 77 Brewer St, London W1F 9ZN
Just around the corner, Sketch London has brought their notable, artistic flair to this traditional cocktail to create the ALLTTA (A Little Lower Than The Angels). Choosing a combination of red port, muscovado syrup, Creole bitters and a chocolate pencil garnish, this riff on the Old Fashioned brings the hints of bitter chocolate of ANGEL’S ENVY to the fore. Available from the start of Old Fashioned Week, Friday 5 November, at £16.50 from
