Question 1

Wooden Nickel

Glass - Beer snifter

Description: well balanced, not too strong or sweet but still bourbon forward. without smoking the glass the cocktail is too sweet, smell & taste go hand in hand

Answer 1

Part 1:
Chill snifter by stirring ice
Empty ice and smoke glass w/maple wood, cover with wooden top to trap smoke

Part 2: 
in a shaker:

.75oz Blue Maple Agave Syrup

Part 3:
Remove wooden top from glass and quickly double strain into snifter (this should be done in front of the guest, as the liquid will push the smoke out of the glass creating an effect)
