Longshoreman

Here’s another Manhattan riff from the team at Liquor.com. The Longshoreman drops the Angostura bitters and adds Averna Amaro from Sicily. The update is a welcome one as Averna Amaro is a wonderful sipper all on its own. The slightly sweet, slightly bitter herbal notes from the Averna coupled with the raisin-forward syrupy Punt e Mes cuts through and tames the 100 proof spicy-sweet rye whiskey just enough to balance everything out. I like this riff on my old favorite the Manhattan… and I think you will too!
