A modern twist on the classic Manhattan cocktail.
This boundary-pushing twist on the classic Manhattan brings oceanic depth with a kombu-infused sweet vermouth, Twisted Alchemy Persian Lime Juice for brightness, and a silky olive oil wash to finish. The bourbon stays the star, while hints of umami and citrus bring remarkable complexity.
Serve in: Nick & Nora glass
**Ingredients:**
- 2 oz bourbon
- 1 oz kombu-infused sweet vermouth*
- 0.25 oz Twisted Alchemy Persian Lime Juice

3. Add all ingredients to a mixing glass with ice and stir until chilled.
4. Double strain into a chilled Nick & Nora glass.
