Orchard's Ember

Inspired by the warmth of whiskey and the crispness of apple, the Orchard's Ember is a velvety smooth cocktail that balances sweetness, herbaceous undertones, and a unique blend of calvados and whiskey. Its innovative mix of Suze for a subtle bitter edge, orgeat syrup for sweetness, and velvet falernum for a touch of spice and clove, creates a harmonious and sophisticated drink. Served in a chilled coupe glass and garnished with a thin apple slice, it's a testament to the art of mixology.
