Coastal Blue Heather

A cocktail tribute to Rachel Barrie, the First Lady of Scotch. This recipe is delicate, yet well-structured, allowing the true character of the whisky to shine through. Take the time to savor the sweet floral nectar, paired with delicious ripe blueberries, then drift away to a coastal dreamland near a charming spring garden.
