Our Old Fashioned Mix is a long time in the making, having slowly and methodically tweaked our recipe until it was perfect. It is simply a labor of love.
Fans of our Demerara Syrup and our Bitters will know the two together make an exquisite Old Fashioned, and our Old Fashioned Kit has long been a Jack Rudy staple. In an effort to offer a streamlined, all-in-one package, we've combined them in a precise, balanced recipe to achieve consistent, delicious results in the glass, every time. You can expect a touch of sweetness on the palate, and a complex, pleasing bitterness that is the key to a great Old Fashioned.

JACK RUDY BRAND: Our products are formulated in small batches and distributed across the globe to the finest bottle shops, bars, restaurants, and discerning customers.
Founders: Jack Rudy Cocktail Co. is a family-run company based in Charleston, SC, and Lexington, KY. Our goal is to take long-forgotten staples of the American bar and reinvent them to drink as our great-grandparents might once have.
Our Great-Grandfather's Legacy: Jack Rudy was many things. He was a pilot who illegally flew his plane under the Ohio River Bridge (on a dare), an inventor who created a mechanical device for pharmacists to count pills, and a craftsman who once built a houseboat from an old city bus.
After serving as an aircraft mechanic in WWII, he worked as an engineer. He read Popular Mechanics and National Geographic cover to cover – a curious type who made his bullets and shot them into a dirt wall he constructed in his basement. In addition to being a ‘marvelous’ dancer, he LOVED to entertain and was known to overindulge in drink, smoke, and his wife’s gourmet cooking.
Products and Philosophy: Our products are crafted in the United States in small batches and distributed carefully worldwide to finer bottle shops, bars, restaurants, and general fans of delicious drinks.
