Instructions

  1. Set up a chemex with a paper filter, rinse it with boiling water, then remove the filter and pour out the water.
  2. Place 90ml Chivas 18 at the bottom of the chemex and immerse it in a hot water bath, covering about 2 inches.
  3. Put the filter back into place and add 21 grams of coffee ground slightly coarser than espresso.
  4. In a separate jug, combine 30ml syrup, 18 drops bitters, and 210ml freshly boiled water.
  5. Pour just enough hot mixture to wet the grounds, stir briefly, then wait 30 seconds.
  6. Slowly pour the rest in circular motions starting from the edge and ending at the center.
  7. When the cone is full, let it drip through before pouring the remaining liquid into the center.
  8. Once dripping slows down, discard the filter with coffee grounds.
