Laird’s Old Fashioned (RTD)

TRADITION IN EVERY SIP  –   MADE IN TRUE FASHION

        Apple Brandy and Angostura Bitters with Natural Flavors

It is generally accepted that the first published  reference to the term “cock tail” was in 1806 in The Balance and Columbian Repository and was defined as a “stimulating liquor, composed of    spirits of any kind, sugar, water and bitters.” Today there are many theories as to when the “cock tail” was referred to as the “Old Fashioned.”

Coincidently, in the mid-1800’s, Samuel Laird and his son Joseph Laird were the respective trainer and jockey of the most famous race mare of turf racing history—”Fashion”. In 1855 she became know as “Old Fashioned” when she foaled a filly to  be named “Young Fashion”.

Perhaps the original Old Fashioned Cocktail
was made with Samuel Laird’s spirit—
Laird’s Applejack.
