Perfect Blood & Sand

Use these specified component styles: Peated single malt whisky; Kirschwasser (cherry) eau-de-vie.

Chill a cocktail coupe in advance to ensure optimal temperature for serving.

Prepare an orange zest twist and a skewer of Luxardo Maraschino cherries for garnish.

Combine the blended Scotch whisky, peated single malt whisky, cherry liqueur, Kirschwasser, Strucchi Rosso Vermouth, Strucchi Dry Vermouth, and freshly squeezed orange juice in a shaker.

Shake the mixture vigorously with ice to thoroughly blend and chill the ingredients.

Fine strain the cocktail into the pre-chilled coupe glass, ensuring a smooth texture.

Express the oils from the orange zest twist over the surface of the cocktail and then discard the twist.

Finish by garnishing the drink with the skewered maraschino cherries.
