Thanks for the Nocturne. I’d never heard that composition before.

There’s also a Southern Comfort Manhattan. After a day on the ski slopes, it’s a drink for drifting off into warm contemplation before a roaring fire.

I understood that you are supposed to make your Manhattan with Rye until Derby Day, then, bourbon. Back to rye after Labor day.

Definitely use rye whiskey in your Manhattan.. I recommend Bulleit Rye, but treat yourself to the famous Templeton Rye if you can find it. Angostura bitters is a must. A splash of Leopold Brothers Tart Cherry Liqueur is a spectacular addition too.
