Give me some recommendations. Which cocktails benefit from being aged in barrels?

THE MORNINGSTAR: This cocktail was described by my bartender tonight as a "twist" on the classic Manhattan cocktail. The description on its menu reads as follows: "Eagle Rare Whiskey/Frangelico/...

Looking for Luxardo Maraschino cherries (the fruit not the liqueur). Any idea where I can pick up a jar? My Manhattans are longing for them!

What is the difference rye vs bourbon in a manhattan? I've never had rye hence the question. Thanks

Just finished the jar of store bought Maraschino cherries, but I'd like to make my own now. I'm not looking to replicate the Maraschino, I just want a good tasting cherry for my Manhattan. I have a...

Hi. I'm planning a picnic for 30 in a park where they will be screening the Woody Allen classic MANHATTAN. I have 2 1 gallon coolers, 2 1 liter bottles of Bulleit Rye, a bottle of Dolin Vermouth ...

Has anyone made it to any of the events this year? We sadly missed out on the Gala (sold out in four minutes flat and didn't get a chance to get tix when they put them back up!), but we managed ...
