Hochstadter's Slow & Low Coffee Old Fashioned

Slow & Low Coffee Old-Fashioned
An After-Dinner Classic, Reimagined.

Inspired by the iconic New Orleans after-dinner drink Café Brûlot, this bold twist on the Old-Fashioned blends straight rye whiskey with Intelligentsia coffee, raw honey, Demerara sugar, Angostura bitters, and a touch of orange peel.

🔥 Proof: 80 (40% ABV)
☕ Style: Extra dry — just 1 sugar cube per 2 oz serving

This isn't your average sweet cocktail. It's a dark, spirit-forward sipper—warming and complex, with notes of roasted coffee, citrus zest, spice, and rye bite.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Bold coffee aroma with rye spice and citrus oils

Palate: Bitter orange, black coffee, soft honey, and spicy bitters
