Prepare Glass
Mix Cocktail
Combine ingredients
In a mixing glass, add 2 oz Buchanan's blended Scotch, 0.5 oz dry vermouth, 0.25 oz sweet vermouth, 2 dashes aromatic bitters, 1 dash orange bitters, and 0.25 tsp simple syrup.
Strain
Discard the ice or water from the chilled serving glass. Using a julep or Hawthorne strainer, double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass to remove any small ice shards.
Garnish & Serve
Express the lemon twist over the drink by holding the twist skin-side down above the glass and giving it a firm squeeze to release oils, then rub the peel around the rim and drop it into the drink. Add one Luxardo or brandied cherry on a cocktail pick and rest it across the rim or drop into the bowl.
Serve immediately. Recommend enjoying slowly to appreciate the blended Scotch's character.
