Bourbon fans will be delighted to hear that November 2 to November 11 is Old Fashioned Week 2017 - a global celebration of the classic cocktail.

The Old Fashioned was first conceived in 19th century Kentucky and is traditionally made from a combination of bourbon whiskey, sugar and bitters and garnished with an orange peel twist.

London is a long way off from the Bluegrass state but it's still packed with places to sample the US staple.

As the official bourbon of Old Fashioned Week 2017, Wild Turkey is offering tours of central London's bourbon hot-spots to celebrate.

The Old Fashioned tour goes to three secret drinking London spots

The bourbon tour takes Londoners on a journey to three secret speakeasies where they can sample the best Old Fashioneds in the city while being shown how to make them by top bartenders.

Each stop on the tour offers a different take on the cocktail and from straight up traditional to surprising modern twists there is an Old Fashioned for every taste.
