I love a good Manhattan and always have Rye whiskey on hand, so what the heck, let's try this combo, said I! And I'm glad I did, as this was a delight!

I tend to use middle-shelf or even lower end Rye whiskey in my cocktails as I like my high-end stuff too much to drink as anything other than neat, but even with the lower grade Tincup I used, this was a treat. The vermouth dominated, but the Rye kept a pleasant, dry finish.

I did read the comments beforehand and added ice to mine in a rocks glass and it mellowed nicely. Will make this again. And likely again.

A simple cocktail, yet deceptively full of flavour and interest. Will definitely make again.

I have the Redemption 95% straight rye that's only 92 proof, so I dropped it to a 2:1 ratio of rye to Martini Rosso. used Peychauds for bitters over Angostura. An absolute delightful drink.

I absolutely recommend trying the Redemption straight rye if you get a chance. Inexpensive, so taste to price point is excellent. https://www.diffordsguide.com/beer-wine-spirits/8097/redemption-rye-whiskey

Only had bulleit 95 rye, so bumped it up to 50ml, and went scant on a 50/50 mix of carpano and punt e mes. Pretty good I reckon.

Made it with Rough Rider "The Big Stick" rye (distilled and bottled on Long Island) in honor of 9/11/2001. Boker's Bitters are a good alternative in this.

I tried with the addition of 1 dash of black walnut bitters and thought it added to this recipe

Just tried this after a Reverse Manhattan ('after' as in the following evening, not the following five minutes). Martini Rosso works wonderfully in the Reverse, but this needs something more, ahem, 'assertive'. This was lovely, and foregrounded the Rittenhouse Rye to advantage. But do try a Reverse Manhattan - great drink!

I often find this to be a safer bet proportion-wise than the classic 2:1 ratio, which can be quite dry. This also works well served over ice.

As simple as effective. This is a must try if you are in the Vieux Carre vibe !

I'm not a Manhattan purist but I didn't care for the proportions of this one

I love the simple aperitifs. This is great, falvourful, and perfect with appetisers. Going into my favourites.

Really brilliant name! I made this with Canadian Rye Crown Jewel Nothern Harvest and Carpano Classico sweet vermouth. Great kind of a Manhattan Nightcap!

This is fantastic. Had my first tonight, certain I will have many more in years to come. Cheers.

Ran out of Carpano, so did a “perfect” sweet version - 1/2 carpano, 1/2 punt de mes, 10y WP.

Denna va inte så go...

Usually i do this with Carpano Antica Formula. The result is not only smooth but also with surprising herbal back flavors.

Or you could call it a, wait for it, High Ryeser.
