I can't have been the first person to do this, but it's delicious, and I'm not immediately finding it. I apologize in advance to whoever created it first.

  • I used Banhez, Citadelle, Dolin and a dash of Regan's. Pretty dry and subtle with those ingredients: enjoyable but not memorable.
  • I used a good anejo, cocci americano, and beefeater gin. The americano adds some sweetness and the smokey complex anjeo is really the star.

Good, but maybe a tad dry for my taste. A dash of orange bitters (I used Regan's) helps.

  • A fun, subtler variation on the Manhattan. I used brugal anejo and tippleman's double spiced falernum. Per the note I reduced falernum to 0.25 ts. I could really taste the wood aging in this drink though it wasn't assertive.
  • Made with Fair rum and Lustau sweet vermouth-really good — ★★★★★
  • Good, but might try with Demerara rum, or Punt e Mes instead of Carpano Antica. Or both. Something to give it bit more depth.

Cara A commented on 10/03/2021:

Wow, really tasty! Complex and rich. Used tart branded cherries to cut some of the sweetness.

Artur B commented on 8/25/2024:

Suddenly I was out of Falernum so used Benedictine instead. Still very good!

  • Really good. Definitely brings out the salinity and interesting notes from the Sherry. I'll be drinking this a lot.
  • not that great with cooking sherry!
  • Clean at the outset, then some interesting tastes emerge (including the saltiness of the sherry). Good drink when you want something different — ★★★★

  • Used home made cider. Approximate proportions of ingredients. The cider and gin alone taste better than the combination.
