Smoked Old Fashioned Cocktail (Smokey Valley)
A smoked Old Fashioned with deep whiskey character, perfect for Ozarks evening sipping.
Smokey Valley starts with GBR-17 Whiskey, syrup, and bitters, then finishes under smoke for a campfire-kissed Old Fashioned. It stays classic where it counts, with just enough extra depth to feel right on cool Ozarks evenings and slower nights near Table Rock Lake.
