The manhattan is one of the most requested and most classic of cocktail designs. It can be seen in its simplicity and use of classic recipe ingredients: spirit, modifier, bitters, and water. You can stay true classic with a Rye or work on a newer version using Bourbon (in which “new” is still 50+ years old).

Personally, the flavor profile is fine but has a bit of a fortified wine finish. I tend to favor a bitter / amaro finish over the wine finish, but to each their own.

The Manhattan
* 2 oz Rye or Bourbon Whiskey
* 1 oz Sweet Vermouth
* 2 dashes Angostura
* 1 Maraschino Cherry (Garnish)
