IBA
A product of mid-20th-century American cocktail culture, the Rusty Nail gained particular cachet among the Rat Pack set during the 1960s, when its two-ingredient simplicity was considered the height of understated cool. Drambuie's heather honey and herb sweetness melds with the smoky, peated character of Scotch in a way that is warming and aromatic without sacrificing the spirit's essential character.
