Big flavours combine harmoniously in this Manhattan riff which substitutes bitters for an amaro

Since i can't make my own personal comments any more without subscribing (what a joke) I guess I'll make them public. Finally tried the correct version, think I preferred with cocchi.

Premium members can add notes to cocktails and brands (beers, wines & spirits) which are only viewable to them whenever they return to that cocktail or brand. Anyone who made such a personal note before the introduction of Premium (on 27.Aug.24) will still be able to read their existing notes but will not be able to make new notes. Members who have not joined Premium can still leave public comments, and such comments can be useful for other members of the community, so we are keen to encourage their use. Private notes can only be seen by, and so are only of use to individual members; hence, private notes are one of the many benefits we reserve for Premium members. Premium membership costs less than £1 a week ($1.04/ €0.98) – cheap compared to a cocktail!

Accidentally poured cocchi instead of punt e mes. Still delicious. Now to try the right way.

probably my favourite Manhattan riff. haven't got Averna at home, but honestly works really well with Mr. Black's coffee amaro

just the right amount of spice and sweet. not much bitter but enough that you get it in the back of your throat. a definite make again.

Great complexity and balanced aroma - Wild Turkey 101 Rye, Punt E Mes, Averna.

Wow, just wow. A perfect evening sipper. Well balanced, slightly sweet, and with some kick. Going onto my favourites. Used a California rye, Rip Tide Cask Strength Rye, at 118 proof. Nice.

Recommend a long site stir for dilution, and orange bitters. Nice and easy...

Woof! Tried it with Sazerac Rye and Punt E Mes. The rye matched perfectly with the Averna, vermouth, and flamed orange zest. Had to have another the next day!
