Perfect Manhattan. Cheers!
Seeing @Craig1981 cocktails got me thinking it is about time I tried making one myself.
First I bought the glasses.
Then the real bottle + classy additions.
How about this for a classy cocktail

Love those glasses! Was tempted to get one to, but I got the AU highball glass instead.
Interesting cocktail, does it have a name or did you invent it yourself?
Yes.
I've called it Dr Flaked out
think she fancies me

Earlier: Vieux Télégraphe 'La Crau' 2018. My fave CNdP, though not my fave vintage.
Right now: JD Single Barrel Rye. One of the best VFM ryes IMO. JD has some of the best "special editions" going. Often overlooked given the rep of no7. I've got a barrel proof one waiting for a reason to open... hopefully soon!
Interested in the Clase Azul! Really worth the premium? Love the bottle.

That was my second only try of Tequila, with the first being a supermarket bought, so experience wise I'm still a novice.
Difference for me was how smooth it was. It still had the kick, but didn't bite as much as the cheaper supermarket bought one had.
I would drink again and I believe my OH may be buying me a bottle later.
The place we tried it at, also had a big collection of premium rums, Japanese & Chinese Whiskeys and Sake, which we will probably sample next.
