World Spice 25
- Details
Enjoy a sip this spicy and sensational cocktail! To celebrate our 25th birthday, we pulled out all the stops with Ras El Hanout, our signature blend with over 20 aromatic spices. It imparts a lovely bright orange color to the syrup and the flavors lean right into the oaky American whiskey. Crisp lemon and honey mellows everything out. Cheers to 25 more spicy years!

What is Eagle Rare Whiskey?
can you suggest a whiskey equivalent? There are so many! I like making a Manhattan with a Canadian type whisket (Canadian Club, VO, Canadian Mist, etc)
Thank you!
Any good medium grade whiskey of your choice should work. There are a lot of bold flavors, so you don’t need a high end whiskey because it will get lost.
