It was created in <b>1894 at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City</b> to honor the premiere of an operetta based on the Scottish folk hero Rob Roy MacGregor. The drink uses Scotch whisky instead of rye or bourbon, which gives it a smokier, peaty edge.</p> <p><b>Tasting Notes:</b><br> Smooth, rich, and a little smoky with herbal notes from the vermouth and a slight spice from the bitters. A perfect sip for anyone who prefers a spirit-forward cocktail without the sweetness of a bourbon base.</p> <p><b>Ingredients:</b></p> <p>·&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2 oz Scotch whisky</p> <p>·&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;¾ oz sweet vermouth</p> <p>·&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2 dashes Angostura bitters</p> <p>·&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Maraschino cherry (for garnish)</p> <p><b>&nbsp;</b></p> <p><b>Directions:</b></p> <p>1.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Add Scotch, vermouth, and bitters to a mixing glass filled with ice.</p> <p>2.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Stir well until chilled.</p> <p>3.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Strain into a chilled coupe or martini glass.</p> <p>4.&nbsp; &nbsp; Garnish with a maraschino cherry.</p>
