What it does

A rounded bourbon route for a Boulevardier, building body and sweetness around the bitter centre rather than adding rye-like edge. It works when the drink should feel broad and settled; a rich vermouth can make the result too soft unless the bitter keeps its authority.

In the family

American whiskeys

The weight-and-warmth move. Bourbon rounds and sweetens, rye firms and spices. Either way it takes the drink into Boulevardier territory, not a tweaked Classic.
