Nomad Vancouver Restaurant Owner and Head Bartender Matt Van Dinther and recent winner of the Havana Club Daiquiri Competition made me the best whiskey cocktail ever: The Doctor's Orders. Named after Dr. Peychaud's it is a twist on the classic Sazerac Cocktail with Bourbon, Port, and Sherry! It is a perfectly balanced cocktail because the port is a digestive and the sherry is a aperitif. The absinthe rinse is very floral and the bitters add a depth to the cocktail not to mention the amazing home made coco vanilla bitters made by Matt!
