There are candles that scent a room. And then there are candles that own it.
The Smoked Old Fashion is the latter.
Inspired by the depth and ritual of a perfectly smoked whiskey cocktail, this hand-poured candle was designed for spaces that don't settle for ordinary. Set in a classic rocks glass complete with realistic gel "ice cubes" and a sculpted soy wax garnish on top, it's as much a visual statement as it is a sensory one.
The Craft Behind It
Every Smoked Old Fashion candle is hand-poured in small batches using 100% premium gel wax — a medium chosen specifically for its clarity and ability to suspend the signature ice cube design. The result is a candle that looks like your favorite cocktail, right down to the last detail.
The wick burns clean. The scent throw fills a room. And the reusable rocks glass means the experience doesn't end when the candle does.
The Fragrance
Bold. Unapologetic. Refined.
The scent opens with Spiced Leather — sharp, confident, and immediately commanding — before settling into a deep base of Bourboned Tobacco. It's the olfactory equivalent of a well-aged whiskey: complex, warm, and impossible to ignore.
This isn't a background scent. It's a presence.

Now Make the Real Thing: The Smoked Old Fashioned Cocktail
The candle sets the mood. The cocktail seals the deal. Here's how to craft a proper Smoked Old Fashioned at home.
What You'll Need
- 2 oz bourbon or rye whiskey
- 1 sugar cube (or ½ tsp simple syrup)
- 2–3 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 large ice cube or sphere
- Orange peel, for garnish
- A smoking kit or smoking gun with applewood or cherrywood chips
How to Make It
- Smoke the glass. Place your rocks glass upside down over the smoking gun nozzle. Ignite the wood chips and fill the glass with smoke. Let it sit for 30–60 seconds, then flip it right-side up — the smoke will billow out dramatically. That's the moment.
- Build the base. Drop a sugar cube into the glass and saturate it with bitters. Muddle gently until dissolved. If using simple syrup, just add it directly.
- Add the whiskey. Pour in 2 oz of your bourbon or rye. Stir gently for about 20 seconds to chill and combine.
- Ice it. Add one large ice cube or sphere. A single large cube melts slower and keeps the drink from diluting too fast.
- Garnish. Express an orange peel over the glass — hold it skin-side down and give it a firm twist over the drink to release the oils. Run it around the rim, then drop it in or perch it on the edge.
- Light the candle. Sip slowly. You've earned it.
Pro Tips
- Use a high-rye bourbon (like Bulleit or Woodford Reserve) for a spicier, more complex profile that mirrors the candle's leather and tobacco notes.
- No smoking kit? Toast a cinnamon stick with a lighter and let it smolder in the glass for a simpler smoky effect.
- Serve it in your Smoked Old Fashion rocks glass once the candle has burned down — the vessel was made for exactly this moment.
