Name: Bucatino Lemon Peppered Old Fashioned
Color: Yellow/Clear
Nose: Bourbon, lemon, pepper
Taste: Bourbon, lemon, with a spicy pepper finish
The Lemon Peppered Old Fashioned is more of a summer spicy cocktail that is created at Bucatino Restaurant and Wine Bar in Falmouth, Ma. I had my doubts, but it was so unique I had to give it a try.
Bucatino Lemon Peppered Old Fashioned:
- Woodford Bourbon
- Pepper Syrup
- Lemon Bitters
- Stir on ice and on the rocks
- Add dehydrated sliced of lemon
This cocktail was a nice surprise. It was well balanced and refreshingly citrus with the pepper not overpowering the flavors. The Woodford works well with the lemon pepper combo and it overall a nice refreshing drink. It is easy to drink, but I would not recommend more than two. Sweeter drinking summer whiskey cocktails, even with pepper syrup can sneak up on you very fast after a long day in the sun!
I recommend this cocktails outside and/or dinner at Bucatino if you are in the Falmouth/Cape Cod area.
