The Handmade Cocktail Company

Vintage Cocktails
The Handmade Cocktail Company have released their third batch of Antique Manhattan! Made with ingredients from the 1980s, this allows us the chance to peek into the past - like a cocktail-shaped time machine!
The concept of the ‘Vintage Cocktail’ range is simple – you get all the ingredients for a superb cocktail pre-mixed, all you have to do is pour it over ice, stir, then strain off into your glass and garnish (in this instance with a Maraschino cherry). Each bottle carries a stamp showing its year of manufacture.
Opens with Black Forest gâteau, nougat and dusty oak. A little bit of digestive biscuit here and there, before sweet, rootsy notes really start to build.
A big wave of rounded sweetness starts off the palate with cherry and peach. A slowly developing spiciness of green peppercorns sits in the background. Old leather, too.
Waxy orange peels, oak furniture and a juicy splash of raspberry coulis.
From the first nosing, this is clearly rather distinguished indeed.
