Melissa Demian
I had some new make spirit from a recent visit to the Port of Leith distillery here in Edinburgh, and thought I'd try this with it. Superb, if a very different take on a Manhattan! I like mine dry in any event, which this is, with a beguiling saltiness (from the new make spirit) and almost mintiness (from the absinthe). I know it doesn't sound good, but it is!

A rye whiskey and maple syrup sour served short and straight-up. You'd perhaps have expected this cocktail to be more drawn out.
