History

Spicy and delicate, reminiscent of a Manhattan.

This cocktail was created in November 2018 at FAM Bar, London, England, to honor Mark Ridgwell. He was the author of Spirits Distilled, a respected educator, and the creator of the Taste & Flavour network for speakers and spirit enthusiasts. The original recipe is based on Maker's Mark, a brand Mark enthusiastically promoted. It consisted of 20ml Rittenhouse rye, 25ml FAM blend vermouth (an equal mix of Carpano Classico, Punt e Mes, and Martini rosso), and 5ml Braemble gin liqueur.
