Simple yet sophisticated, strong and refreshing, the Gold Rush is your favorite bartender's favorite whiskey drink.

Pro-Tip Experiment with different bourbon variations to find the perfect match for your taste preferences. Some swear Maker's Mark makes the best Gold Rush while we prefer a Bottled-In-Bond bourbon, whose 100 proof alcohol content will hold up against the other ingredients.
