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.
