Whiskey cocktails are usually good but this updated and improved version, created by Jerry Thomas, is significantly better.

Put a martini glass into the freezer for 5 minutes to chill.
Place all of the ingredients into a cocktail shaker, except for the garnish, and then fill with ice.
Stir the mixture for 30 seconds to combine and then strain into the prepared glass. Garnish with the lemon zest and then serve immediately.
