One of my go-tos for a long time. The only cocktail riff I really knew until I subscribed to this newsletter. I guess the obvious next step is a perfect Manhattan with a split base!
Big Gal is beautiful! She has a gorgeous blonde coat. We are hound people ourselves, but love all dogs. Oh, and spirits as well. But dogs make magical alchemy even better.
This sounds like a perfect solution. I don't know why every year as soon as it starts to warm up outside a Manhattan seems to sweet. Thank you for this idea, I never would have imagined mixing the two vermouth.
I am also a former Combat Medic. I did some reporting in Palestine, back during the first Intifada, in 2001. I am middle aged and safely at home these days.
I did not like the perfect manhattan the first time I tried it with rye. I will try it again the next time I have dry vermouth, since you have opened my eyes to so many things Peter.

The Perfect was always my Manhattan of choice, starting in my 20s. I'd use a lemon peel twist instead of a cherry, though.
And with Canadian Club, because I was in my 20s and didn't have Peter Suderman to educate me!
I never would have thought to split the vermouth (sweet and dry); only tried the sweet/camparica splt. Can't wait to try it!
The Rye and Bonal drink on their menu sounds interesting as well
She is Sweet and Dry…. simply, Perfect

I only pay for a few sub stacks. This one and Counter Offensive are on that short list. It was a shock and pleasure to see Mak show up here.
