Cuban Manhattan

A Myatt’s Fields adaptation of the Manhattan.

Aged Cuban rum, two vermouths and grapefruit bitters ABV 28.4%

One 75ml serving of Cuban Manhattan contains 177 calories

The Manhattan's architecture is forgiving once you understand it. The relationship between the spirit and the sweet vermouth is the thing, and aged rum navigates that relationship differently but just as well as rye.

We use an aged Cuban rum with enough character to hold its own against the vermouth, and we balance it with grapefruit bitters rather than the Angostura a Manhattan would take. The grapefruit is what makes it ours: it cuts the rum's natural sweetness so the vermouth does not have to work as hard. Six weeks of ageing settles the whole thing into something warmer and more languorous than the original.

No apocryphal origin story. Just a very good drink.
