Allegheny is an unusual name that originates from the Lenape, an indigenous people from present-day northeastern Delaware, New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania, USA. Allegheny is a Lenape word meaning "best flowing river of the hills" or "beautiful stream." The word may originate from an ancient mythical tribe called Allegewi, who it's said lived on the Allegheny River before the land was taken over by the Lenape. Allegheny was the first county in Pennsylvania to be given a Native American name.
Review
I've used a 50/50 mix of dry and bianco vermouths to add some (I believe) much-needed honeyed richness to the all-dry vermouth vintage recipe. Depending on your lemons and crème de mûre, the subtle richness added by splitting the vermouth in this way will hopefully help achieve a perfectly balanced cocktail.

That last one has been out of production for years, but I found a dusty old bottle at a small shop recently, and it still tastes great.
