In this fun, unexpected, and informative guide, New York Times spirits columnist Robert Simonson explores the history of the Old-Fashioned: its birth as the "ur-cocktail" in the late nineteenth century, ascension in the 1950s and 1960s (as portrayed and repopularized by Don Draper on Mad Men), and renaissance as the star of the contemporary craft cocktail movement. A perfect Father's Day gift for any whiskey-loving gent, the book boasts a sleek, stylish package with striking photography throughout. With 50 elegant, delicious, and totally-within-reach cocktail recipes, The Old-Fashioned is destined to become a classic on par with its namesake beverage.
