"We age drinks that have a wine component, such as vermouth or Sherry, because the wine will oxidize a little bit. That brings out a lot of nutty, grassy, earthy flavors." —Jeffrey Morgenthaler; Clyde Common, Portland, OR

  • This is my favorite drink. I prefer this drink made with rye instead of bourbon, and using 1½ oz each of the rye, Campari, and red vermouth. In these ratios, you want a 94+ proof rye, otherwise the Campari overpowers the whiskey
