History & Origins

The Flying Scotchman is a classic cocktail that appears in mid-20th century American and British bartending literature as a whisky-vermouth hybrid. Its name evokes the famous LNER locomotive 'The Flying Scotsman' and Scotland's whisky heritage. The exact originator is not recorded and its authorship is disputed.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: malty Scotch whisky with herbal sweet vermouth, a spiced bitters note, and a slight caramel sweetness from the sugar syrup. Palate: rich and whisky-forward with the sweet vermouth adding herbal complexity and the sugar syrup softening the edges. Finish: warm, malty, and herbal with lingering Scotch character.

Pro Tip

Use a quality blended Scotch for a smooth, accessible result, or a lighter Highland single malt if you prefer a more nuanced whisky character to come through the sweet vermouth.
