In terms of picking a bottle of either, it’s always best to select a higher proof whiskey for mixing (Redemption has a range from 88 to 92 proof in our baseline) so that you still end up with enough depth of flavor after diluting your cocktail. It has a slightly higher proof so you can even use it in a tiki-inspired cocktail, like a Rye Tai!

It was a tiki/tropical bar or a haven for amaro. Also on offer may be a frozen cocktail or two, draft cocktails, a fat-washed cocktail, a clarified milk punch, a Boilermaker, a fancified whiskey highball, something with shochu, and a spritz. It was a classic cocktail bar, or a neo-speakeasy. It is a bit like Walmart.
