The Dochus Derby is a bright, citrus-forward take on the classic Brown Derby, a cocktail that first gained fame in 1930s Hollywood. Traditionally made with bourbon, grapefruit, and honey, this version swaps in Glen Dochus Export Blend, whose rich whisky character brings layers of soft smoky oak, spiced ginger, and warm toffee notes to the drink. Fresh grapefruit juice provides a lively tartness, while Scottish heather honey adds gentle sweetness and depth.
This is a beautifully balanced non-alcoholic cocktail with smooth whisky warmth. The Dochus Derby carries the spirit of the original Old Hollywood classic while highlighting the rich, indulgent character of Glen Dochus.
