Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

Chill your mixing and coupe glasses ahead of time; temperature control keeps the cocktail sharp, composed, and texturally lovely from start to finish.

Preparation

Preparation Tip 2

Equal proportions of whisky, bitter vermouth, and dry vermouth should be accurately measured—an imbalance in ratios might cause the flavour to be overly bitter or thin.
