Rob Roy
Created in 1894, this quintessential scotch whisky cocktail was named in honour of an operetta, by composer Reginald De Koven and lyricist Harry B. Smith, loosely based on the Scottish outlaw turned national folk hero, Rob Roy MacGregor. Both complex and delicate in taste, there is a very good reason this has remained a favourite over the years.
