Encapsulating the nostalgia of timeless concoctions while introducing a luxurious twist, the Velvet Charade is a sumptuous sip that promises to tickle the taste buds with its rich depths and velvety texture. Meant for slow sipping and savouring each complex layer, this cocktail is a reinvention of the classic Old Fashioned, introducing port and chocolate bitters into the mix for a modern classic.

Combine bourbon, tawny port, simple syrup, and both bitters in a mixing glass filled with ice. 2. Stir gently for 20-30 seconds until well-chilled. 3. Strain into a chilled rocks glass over a large ice cube. 4. Express the orange twist over the drink and then drop it in along with the Luxardo cherry. 5. For an additional twist, lightly torch a thinly sliced fig until it's just caramelized and place it on the rim of the glass or skewer it with the cherry for a decadent garnish. Glass Type: Serve in a rocks glass, also known as an Old Fashioned glass, to pay homage to the cocktail's roots while allowing for the full appreciation of its rich hues and aromas.
