Scotch Point
Scotch, vermouth, fortified wine, and bitters. If there is a Manhattan, then this is Aberdeen, Glasgow, and Edinburgh rolled into one

Thought I had Scotch on the shelf. Oh well... For those wanting to try a substitute for it, I first tried this with Willett 4-yr Rye and it was not appealing. Laphroaig 10 was interesting though, in that it tasted like one of their Cairdeas port barrel aged expressions, sort of.

I think still too much Scotch. Admittedly, this was my first drink with Punt E Mes, but I barely tasted anything else. My scotch is JW Red.

Maybe try again at 50-20-20.

Too much scotch - I think I will drop the scotch to 2 oz (or maybe 1 1/2), to bring in line with the classic ratios of a Rob Roy. May also add another dash of bitters.

Agreed. I've reduced and rebalanced.
