Manhattan
The Manhattan is a legendary classic cocktail with a rich, slightly spicy, and sweet herbal flavor profile. It is the perfect choice for a sophisticated evening aperitif or a late-night digestif. For the best experience, use quality rye whiskey and always stir with ice rather than shake to maintain a silky, clear texture.
