History

Today’s Manhattan tips the scales in favor of bourbon, with just enough vermouth and a couple dashes of bitters for depth. This modern classic is decidedly bolder, letting the whiskey shine while keeping its historic roots. Loved for its strength and precision, it’s the choice for those who crave tradition with contemporary punch. Manhattan now is a showcase for whiskey’s rich character and timeless appeal.
