Elsewhere Blood Orange Aperitif Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Rye Whiskey Hand crafted in the traditionalThis aperitif starts with New York spirit made from dent corn from the Finger Lakes, from which Matchbook's gin is made. Then, a shocking amount of fresh blood oranges from California are trucked in, cut in half, and then placed in the gin. Left to macerate for weeks, the liquid slowly takes on a delightful ruby tone and unmistakable bittersweet zing. After straining and pressing, the liquid is rested on precious herbs and spices from Rare Tea Cellar.
