Method
Cocktail
- 1
Combine
In a mixing glass or small tin, add 2 oz rye whiskey, 0.25 oz demerara rum, 0.25 oz simple syrup, 2 dashes Angostura bitters, 1 dash orange bitters and 0.25 oz water.
- 2
Stir
Fill the mixing glass with large ice or regular ice and stir briskly for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 full rotations) until the drink is well chilled and slightly diluted.
- 3
Prepare glass
Place a large ice cube into an old-fashioned glass.
- 4
Strain
Double-strain or fine-strain the chilled cocktail over the large ice cube in the glass to remove any small ice chips.
Garnish & Finish
- 5
Express orange oil
Take an orange peel, hold it skin-side down over the glass and firmly pinch to express the oils across the surface of the drink. Rub the peel around the rim briefly to release aroma.
- 6
Garnish
Drop the expressed orange peel into the glass or lay it on the ice. Optionally add a Luxardo cherry on a pick beside or atop the peel.
- 7
Serve immediately and enjoy. The demerara rum adds a deeper molasses note while the small amount of water and stirring ensures a silky texture — this is the New Permit Room take on an Old-Fashioned.
Tools

Use a jigger to measure all spirits and syrup. Use a bar spoon for stirring and a peeler or small knife to cut a 1½–2 inch piece of orange peel for expressing oils.
