The orange liqueur is good, but I am not a fan of a perfect manhattan and variations. I will stick to sweet manhattans.

It's basically a perfect Manhattan that's heavy on the vermouth with a hint of orange. My problem is that I hate dry vermouth. I love a perfect Manhattan but this is heavy on the vermouth and the Cointreau can't offset that. I will stick with a traditional Perfect Manhattan.

Pretty solid Manhattan variation. The hint of orange is just enough to keep things different and interesting, without distracting from the main event, the bourbon.

Yes, much better with a bar spoon of Cointreau, and Carpano Antica. šŸ‘

Might try Italicus vs. Cointreau next time

Oh heavens! I completely misread the Grand Mariner proportions as 1.5 oz. Will try again at home, and with Carpano Antica vs. the Martini & Rossi that was What There Is .

Agree 100% with John Hinojos…

Great variation of the Manhattan. Smooth with just a hint of orange. Nice mild hints from the two vermouths. Perfect for before dinner.
