Manhattan
Cocktail Recipe
It’s raining outside. You duck into a low-lit bar. Jazz is playing. You order a Manhattan: whisky, vermouth, and bitters. Born in an age of glamour, it arrives deep amber and perfect. Sophistication in a glass.

Bartender tip: Stir, don’t shake. Stirring chills the Manhattan without clouding its rich, amber hue.
A Manhattan is more than a cocktail, it’s a statement. Bold, refined, and timeless, it reminds us to savour the moment and embrace classic simplicity.
