The Rusty Nail is a classic cocktail made from Blended Scotch Whisky and Drambuie Whiskylikör. It is believed to have originated in Scotland in the 1930s, named for its color and "nail-like" taste. The Rusty Nail is a drink for whisky enthusiasts who want to enjoy the flavor of the whisky without overshadowing it. The Drambuie adds a pleasant sweetness to the cocktail and softens the whisky's sharpness. The flavor is rich and earthy with notes of honey, spices, and herbs. Since the Rusty Nail is a relatively simple drink, it's ideal for cozy evenings at home or as an aperitif in a bar. It can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks and garnished with a lemon slice or twist as desired.
