Pole-Sitta Old Fashioned

Built steady. Finished smooth.

A rugged twist on the classic Old Fashioned featuring Tallman 75th Reserve Bourbon, black walnut, maple, and a hint of smoke. Best enjoyed after a long day keeping the lights on.

Why “Pole-Sitta”?

Named after the crews who spend their days high above the ground keeping power moving and communities connected.

Like the work itself, this Old Fashioned is dependable, straightforward, and built to last.

Tallman 75th Reserve was created to celebrate the people behind the work. The long days. The hard-earned wins. The partnerships that stand the test of time.

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Tallman 75th Reserve Indiana Straight Bourbon Whiskey
• 1/4 oz maple syrup
• 2 dashes black walnut bitters
• 2 dashes Angostura bitters
• Orange peel
• Luxardo cherry
• Large ice cube

Method:

1. Add bourbon, maple syrup, and bitters to a mixing glass with ice.
2. Stir for 20-25 seconds until chilled.
3. Strain over a large ice cube in a rocks glass.
4. Express orange peel over the drink and rub around the rim.
5. Garnish with orange peel and cherry.

Tallman Tip:

Use one large ice cube.

Small ice melts fast and waters down good bourbon quicker than a Friday afternoon “quick meeting” that somehow becomes an hour and a half.

What You’ll Taste:

• Rich caramel and oak
• Warm maple sweetness
• Toasted walnut
• Bright citrus finish
• Smooth Indiana bourbon backbone

Balanced. Strong. Uncomplicated.

Like the best crews.

Pairs Well With:

• Smoked brisket
• Sharp cheddar
• Salted mixed nuts
• A successful outage restoration
• Not answering emails until Monday

Crafted for the People Behind the Work
