The ULTIMATE Manhattan Recipe

Looks delicious - it made me think of Barrel Armida, which, if you have not tried yet is a super delicious finished bourbon. You should consider giving it a pour.

The Bull!!

Dirty Pear

‘The Big Pear” as the name.

Made a pair of your standard Manhattan’s tonight for me and my wife utilizing some Wild Turkey 101 Rye. Have to find some of your bitters you suggested but wanted to thank you for the recipe

Thai should be called”The Manhattan Basement”

What are some go to bourbons for Manhattans if you don't have any rye on hand?

just a question, and I don't know if its been asked little off subject but what does SLB stand for?? lol

Great entry to the challenge Kurt!
How about 'Prickly Pear' for the name? Referencing the spiciness from the rye and the pear liqueur...

Hey Kurt, have you tried Jim Beam Red Stag? They call it the lazy man's Manhattan. No Mix, just straight up on ice & add a cherry. Not bad!

Great video

Awesome video

Kurt - you missed the last element of a challenge - you were supposed to pass it onto another channel! :)

The easiest drink for a NYer to remember is a Manhattan.
Classic formula is 2 1 2 ...which is the NYC telephone area code
2 parts Rye
1 part Sweet Vermouth
2 dashes Angustora bitters
Luxardo cherries are the best..I drip in a bit of the liquid from the jar in my Manhattans
My father comes from the original town where Luxardo is from...Zara
Loo-Shar-do is the correct pronunciation
Love your channel!!

sounds and looks like a great manhattan. Thanks for sharing. Cheers

Question: if someone were to buy allocated whiskey on the internet paying secondary; which site(s) would you recommend?

My preference is for a "perfect Manhattan." Would enjoy your comment.

Funny watching Kurt with a little buzz going

Willett rye is very good on drinks

Call it the "Upper East side Manhattan!!"

The SLB Manhattan!

This was my first drink on my 21st bday, ordered for me by my father. So so good! Cant wait to try yours!

I make a good Manhattan, but here in KC, Martin City Brewery does a barrel aged Manhattan that is to die for

It could be a "5th Avenue" Manhattan Love your channel!

I thought I post to this a few months back. Maybe I am mistaking the intent for having actually done. My own version I call the Seattle. Which is odd, I hate Seattle. Anyway, ideally one would use a Washington Whiskey. I prefer Oola Bourbon or Woodinville Rye or Bourbon. In stead of sweet vermouth, I use blackberry brandy - .5 - 1 oz to taste. Garnish with a blackberry and lemon peel skewer.

The SLBSPM or the big pear Manhattan instead of the big apple

i found this channel about a week ago, and man you guys are doing a tremendous job. ya’ll do a great job bringing that family feel. I lost my dad about a yeat ago and watching you guys makes me miss my dad so much. This channel brings me alot of joy because of that. Keep it up gentlemen. Lifetime subscriber here.

PLEASE post the recipes with your cocktails, cheers!

Manhattan Subway or the Lower Manhattan...regardless the name, they both sound great...will try when I can gather the ingredients...many thanks...

"they last a while" is Dad speak for "they're lasting a while, right?"

Yes!!

Then it's a twist on a Manhattan

What? 100 proof? What's that? Explainn

Gupp gupp gupp gupp

Frosty

Sweett vormul

It's achole on achole

Getter done

Looks great 😃

Wow 😲

Whiskeyyy

Could you use any Amaro? the twist off bothers me haha wondering if you could recommend another one or if this is the one I should absolutely go with? thanks!

I use Old Forester Rye, it's 100 proof and about half the price. It's pretty much become my go to for rye based cocktails. For the vermouth I've used cocchi and it's excellent, but lately I've been leaning towards Carpano Antica. The only (minor) quibble I would have is the addition of the syrup. To me it drives the drink over the sweetness line. The excess cherry syrup from the garnish gives the drink all the extra sweet notes it needs. But as they say, drink what makes you happy, cheers!

interesting make up to your Manhattans! I've kept mine pretty sedate so far - 2 oz Old Overholt BIB, 1 oz Dolin Vermouth De Chambery Rouge, 2 dashes Angostura Bitters, 1 dash Angostura Orange bitters, 1 Tillen Farms Bada Bing Cherry. Yum.

I just tried this recipe tonight and it might be the BEST Manhatten recipe I've ever had. Wow! Bravo SLB!

Spice wood Manhattan 🪵

Just made this first original slb manhattan recipe. Super good. Crazy enough it tastes like pumpkin pie!

I'd like to see you attach a written version of your drink recipes. It's awfully hard to play and pause while trying to write.
