Hochstadter's Slow & Low 750ml

A bottled take on Rock and Rye, America's oldest cocktail recipe dating to 19th-century saloons (and pharmacies), Slow & Low starts with a 6-year-old straight rye whiskey base and macerates it with citrus peels, raw Pennsylvania honey, rock candy, and a dash of Angostura bitters. Made in Philadelphia — the drink's spiritual home — it's essentially a ready-to-drink Old Fashioned at a genuinely potent 84 proof.
