First time experiencing, not disappointed. So far I have had it neat, on a rock or two, next on the list a yummy maple old fashioned happy fall Jett

@Jett129 Love a Rye old fashioned with a touch of maple in it, thats my standard recipe. In the summer we make a peach syrup for summer fashioneds.

On another note, i seent yall throwing around negronies and had never had one so i got curious. When i go to themed restaurants i usually try the native cocktails there. So italian cocktail at an italian restaurant and so on...tried it and instantly loved it. Sorta like an italian gin old fashioned i guess lol. well i picked up some hendricks, campari, and sweet vermouth and started making my own. Now i'm hooked. thanks.

@WhiskeySandwich if you're into mezcal you can substitute the gin with mezcal. Also a nice variation

[WhiskeySandwich]

@WhiskeySandwich Pro Tip…I use The Pappy & Company maple syrup that’s been aged in 23 year old bourbon barrels. It’s absolutely insane how good it is. They put it on sale every year on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I buy 3,give one as a present and keep the other 2. They have another one that’s been aged in regular bourbon barrels,it’s cheaper but doesn’t compare. It’s the best maple syrup I’ve ever had.

I have a bottle of that pappy maple!

Another riff on the Last Word is the Final Ward, rye and yellow (some recipes green) chartreuse-based with lemon instead of lime.

My favorite negroni is a La Rosita.
Kind of a perfect (sweet & dry vermouth) negroni made with your favorite tequila in a 3:1:1:1 ratio / (tequila:dry:sweet:campari). Personally, I think a reposado does the best here but also good with your favorite blanco. Adding a dash of grapefruit bitters is nice too.

For favorite Last Word riff, it's easily the industry sour;
Fernet Branca / Green Chartreuse / Simple Syrup / Lime
