I set out to find the perfect Manhattan by making 42 of them.

In an earlier episode, the Vesper Martini specifically, I mused about the idea of a drink matrix: taking two variables, plotting them on an X and Y axis and running through them all. It seemed like a fun idea, and I asked twitter what I should start with, and the most common answer was a Manhattan. Seven ryes crossed by six vermouths yield forty two drinks, which got me into a bit of trouble as you'll see in this episode. But I also think this is super interesting and really informative, and there's some real surprises here too.

Whiskies (in order of line up):
Michter's Kentucky Straight Rye
Rittenhouse Straight Rye
Old Forester Kentucky Straight Rye
Whistle Pig Straight Rye
Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye
Bulleit Straight American Rye
High West Rendezvous Rye
