The Sentimental Gentleman, a smooth sipper that was created by Boston bartender, Misty Kalkofen. If you like a cocktail like the Rusty Nail or the Godfather, you’re going to love this one!

How to Make THE SENTIMENTAL GENTLEMAN

  • Smoother than an old fashioned.

  • Chocolatey elements come through on the palate.

  • Quite sentimental, it will have you thinking of grand ol’ times.

Sips

  • Use your favorite blended malt scotch for this, I prefer Monkey Shoulder.

  • Chill your lowball glass, and reminisce about the past.
