2 1⁄2 oz Whiskey, Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey
1⁄2 oz Demerara syrup (1:1)
2 Coffee bean (dark roast)
1 twst Lemon peel (as garnish)
Instructions
Crush coffee beans and shake with other ingredients. Fine strain into a Champagne flute. Express peel and garnish with twist and a third coffee bean.
Notes
Stranahan's has a sui generis profile, being distilled purely from malted barley (like single malt Scotch) and then aged in charred new oak barrels for two years (like bourbon). The closest approximation might be a Scotch aged in "virgin" (new) oak, of which there are a couple; otherwise a bourbon or rye would be closer in character than a standard ex-bourbon barrel Scotch or Irish.
