Three Wise Men

• Ingredients
  1 part scotch whisky
  1 part tennessee whiskey
  1 part kentucky bourbon whiskey
• Serve
  Neat, on the rocks, or shaken with ice and strained according to taste.
  Or serve the three whiskeys as three separate shots that are lined up and consumed sequentially.

Three wise men is a drink consisting of three types of whiskey with brand names that are each named after a man.

The three named men are the “wise men” in the name of the drink, which is an allusion to the Biblical Magi.

Although informally called a cocktail, it does not meet the usual definition of the term “cocktail”, as the drink includes only whiskeys with no other ingredients.

Several variations exist that include other ingredients or substitute tequila or rum for some of the whiskey.
