Pimento Dram Scotch Cocktail

Whiskey
Prep time: 3 mins
Author: The Bar Team
A cocktail with a foamy top and bitters in a coupe glass on a wooden board, next to a halved lemon and a jigger.

A single malt whiskey carries the complexity of spicy pimento dram (a rum-based herbal liqueur flavored with allspice) while picking up the tartness of lemon, the sweetness of sugar, and the viscosity of egg white. Topped with aromatic bitters and a violet spray, these layered flavors will be sure to take you on a journey.
