As soon as we heard about Rebel Yell's bacon bourbon we knew exciting things were going to happen. The bacon old fashioned was created by Kevin Tidwell, bartender at Little Dom’s.
As Dom's told LAist, "The inspiration was to have something savory and sweet that would make a great cocktail to have with any sort of smoked meat or cheese."
It is so popular they promise to never take it off the menu!
