Heublein Manhattan 1792 Cocktail (37.5cl, 35%)

A ready-to-drink Manhattan made with 1792 Small Batch Bourbon, sweet vermouth and bitters, bottled at 35% ABV in a 375ml bottle. The base bourbon is produced at the Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky and follows a high-rye mashbill of approximately 74% corn, 18% rye and 8% malted barley. Heublein introduced the first commercially bottled ready-made cocktails in 1892. The nose opens with baking spice, cinnamon and clove, followed by maraschino cherry sweetness and subtle herbal notes from the vermouth. The palate is smooth and sweet with cherry and caramel, then peppery spice and bitter orange. The finish is medium length with lingering baking spice and a dry, slightly bitter tail.
