What’s the ratio of paper umbrella to whip cream to booze in an old fashioned?
To make an old fashioned you don’t need to spend more than $15. Buy some 6 year old heaven hill and have at it.

I keep rye's on hand for old fashions.
In an odd occurence, buckethead made a good post. Old Forrester is fine for an OF. I don't bother with any muddled crap. Whiskey, simple sugar, Angustura bitters. A little ice.
All of them.
ymmot31 knows.
Rye is a better choice for Old Fashioned.
I put sliced oranges and cherries in a quart jar with rye for a couple of days, then add some simple syrup and bitters in there the day of.

Bitters. I've had tobacco bitters in them. Should i get several types of bitters?
Angustura for an old fashioned. Don't go snowflake.
I prefer manhattans and bulleit is my go to, sometimes knob creek. The proper cherry is also important - a nice, pruned, dark red maraschino.
There seems to be a shortage of Buffalo Trace in the NY area.. A lot of places can't get it and are desperate to grab some bottles. I've always thought BT is the best low-mid level brand that's generally accessible in stores.
For Old Fashioned's, I switch over to Blackberry for the winter. Sometimes with the orange and cherry, sometimes replacing it.

Try Noah's Mill bourbon. It's got a unique taste and makes a great OF.
Gotta give props to ghorn; @ 15 years ago several of us met before a UK football game and we each brought our favorite bourbons. He brought Noah's Mill and, IMHO, it's one of the best I've ever had.
