Story and flavor
Created by Alex Day in 2012, the Cut and Paste is a modern whiskey-and-apple-brandy old-fashioned style cocktail that reflects the contemporary craft cocktail movement’s interest in layering base spirits for precision and balance. Apple brandy provides a dry orchard-fruit backbone, while pot-distilled Irish whiskey adds soft vanilla, malt, and spice. Honey syrup rounds the drink without making it heavy, and the absinthe rinse with Peychaud's and Angostura bitters gives it a lifted, aromatic finish that feels crisp, structured, and subtly complex.
