1 1/2oz Rittenhouse 100
3/4oz sweet vermouth
1/4oz Benedictine
dash Angostura bitters
Garnish with a lemon twist. Recipe: cocktailDB
Ah yes, my sort of drink! Warm and fuzzy and lovely with a hint of a bite from the Rittenhouse.
quality versus quantity does not have to be a winner-take-all proposition.
who? what?
The euphemisms are getting a bit stale, suffice to say: four people in Boston -- two of whom are much more prolific writers than the other two (including the originator of this blog, who has no excuse apart from laziness) -- who drink and tell.

Tony at Green Street made me this months ago. I've made a few at home.
Similar cocktails are the Manhattan Special (3:1:1+angostura) and the one I recently made which is the Vail (3:1:1 using dry instead of sweet Vermouth and no bitters) using our new Vya Vermouths.
Tim is seriously loving the Vya. Weirdly, I haven't tried it yet. I dunno, I'm cold all the time and want hot tea. :)
The Vya isn't for all cocktails. It overwhelmed my Brooklyn but made for a really good Martini, Vail, and Manhattan cocktails amongst others.
