Scotch whiskey maker Glenfarclas has teamed up with The Drinks Drop to create two pre-mixed cocktails, both of which have been designed to celebrate Scottish poet Robert Burns. The two ready-to-drink offerings include 'Strawberry & Balsamic Rob Roy' and 'Coffee & Cacao Bobby Burns.'
The cocktails are made using Glenfarclas' 60% ABV 105 whiskey and arrive in a unique pouch format, designed by The Drinks Drop. The Strawberry & Balsamic Rob Roy (27% ABV) delivers a sweet and sophisticated blend of flavors with notes derived from strawberry, balsamic, and orange bitters. Meanwhile, Coffee & Cacao Bobby Burns (28% ABV) offers a "powerful and invigorating" twist on the classic cocktail. The coffee-focused offering combines cacao-infused Glenfarclas 105 with Mr Black Coffee Liqueur, Bénédictine liqueur, chocolate wine, and chocolate bitters.
