W Hotels New York Whiskey Cocktails
By Adam Rains
This fall, bartenders will be serving up concoctions made with darker spirits of scotch, whiskeys and bourbons. Whether locally distilled or flavored, these liquors are growing in popularity and are becoming the drink of choice for both men and women alike this season.
W Hotels of NY have created a special Whiskey Cocktail Flight featuring three whiskey based cocktails for a price of $21. These creative 2 oz. libations will be offered through November and are available at The Living Rooms of W New York – Times Square and W New York – Downtown.
