9 THE ROB ROY

£69.00

This aperitif was invented in the 1890s and, unlike the MANHATTAN, is made from a blended scotch with Italian vermouth and aromatic bitters.

It probably got its name from a Broadway show based on Sir Walter Scott’s novel Rob Roy. In Scotland, however, a common story claims it was named after national hero Robert MacGregor, the Scottish Robin Hood, who always carried a flask containing precisely this mixture with him.

Regardless of where the name comes from, we all agree that the ROB ROY should be served “Straight Up” in a chilled cocktail glass and with a twist of orange peel.

Ingredients: Whisky, Red Vermouth (contains sulfites), Bitters
