The BOLD Post-Parade Old Fashioned | High Proof Bourbon Drink

🥃 The Post-Parade Old Fashioned: Bold, Spicy & Rich Ready to slip into something a little more comfortable? Episode 62 features the Post-Parade Old Fashioned, a cocktail that feels exactly like putting on your favorite broken-in leather jacket. This isn't your average bourbon drink; it’s a high-proof, high-complexity masterpiece designed to wake up your palate. In this short, we break down why Old Grand-Dad 114 is the perfect "unapologetic" base, offering a cinnamon "red hot" spice that stands up to the earthy, eucalyptus notes of Cardamom bitters. We also swap standard simple syrup for Gum Syrup to achieve a luscious, silky mouthfeel that lingers long after the first sip. What’s inside: * The Base: 2 oz Old Grand-Dad 114 Bourbon (High Rye & 114 Proof) * The Sweetener: 1/4 oz Gum Syrup for a viscous, rich texture. * The Spice: 2 dashes of Cardamom Bitters for herbal depth. * The Finish: Expressed Orange Peel for a bright, citrusy aroma. Whether you're looking for notes of toasted oak, burnt sugar, or a hint of chocolate, this cocktail delivers a long, warm finish that is perfect for your next Thirsty Thursday. ### **Connect With Us & Support The Journey!** 🥃 **Become a Patron & Get Exclusive Content:** https://www.patreon.com/cw/YourBourbonJourney 🌐 **Visit Our Website:** https://yourbourbonjourney.com/ 🔔 **SUBSCRIBE HERE:** https://www.youtube.com/@YourBourbonJourney?sub_confirmation=1 📸 **Instagram:** https://www.instagram.com/yourbourbonjourney/ 👍 **Facebook:** https://www.facebook.com/YourBourbonJourney 🚨REMEMBER TO ALWAYS DRINK RESPONSIBLY🚨 ❓Questions❓ YourBourbonJourney@gmail.com NOTE: The spirit in this review was purchased by us.
