Originally named the Unripe Manhattan after its creator's website, this Manhattan-style cocktail combines the spice of rye whiskey with sweet bianco vermouth...
This is a really nice Manhattan-style cocktail. I've been kind of bored by the "Manhattan" style, for the most part, but this might be my favorite so far. It does a good job of being whiskey-forward without being too boozy, and complex enough to be interesting. There's a nice hint of orange from the GM.
Came across this cocktail by doing a random search through the pages of the book (flipping some pages randomly) don't know how I never came across this before, this is a new favourite of ours. A riff on the Dubliner.
Well balanced and the burst of flavours are unbelievable. The rye adds some peppery tastes and the vermouths different herbal notes. The Grand Marnier add a wonderful hint of orange. Would be perfect as an aperitif or after-dinner.
