The Barrel Pick Manhattan: For When You Want to Show Off What's in the Glass.
Store Pick Manhattan
Rye or Bourbon · Stirred · Complex
INGREDIENTS
— 2 oz Liquor Depot barrel pick rye or high-rye bourbon
— 1 oz sweet vermouth (Carpano Antica Formula — this is the one)
— 2 dashes Angostura bitters
— 1 dash orange bitters
METHOD
1. Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass with ice.
2. Stir for 30 seconds — Manhattans need more stirring than Old Fashioneds.
3. Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
4. Garnish with a Luxardo cherry — not a maraschino.
GARNISH
— Luxardo maraschino cherry (the dark Italian ones in syrup)
Notes:
Carpano Antica is richer and more vanilla-forward than standard sweet vermouths. It transforms the
Manhattan. Keep vermouth refrigerated and use within 2-3 weeks of opening.
Liquor Depot Tip:
Luxardo cherries are available at all our locations. The difference between a Luxardo
cherry and a standard maraschino cherry in a Manhattan is not subtle.
