Old Fashioned Welcome back to "Cocktails," the podcast where we delve into the rich stories, detailed recipes, and delightful curiosities of the drinks that have shaped our social gatherings. Today, we’re exploring the Old Fashioned, a cocktail that epitomizes the essence of classic mixology. The Old Fashioned is a testament to the timeless appeal of whiskey. Its origins can be traced back to the early 19th century, making it one of the oldest known cocktails. It was originally created as a "whiskey cocktail at the old-fashioned way" in Louisville, Kentucky, and it quickly became a staple at the prestigious Pendennis Club. The Old Fashioned was said to have been invented by a bartender in honor of Colonel James E. Pepper, a prominent bourbon distiller, who then brought the recipe to the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel bar in New York City.
