A recent Manhattan with Michter's straight rye, Martini Gran Lusso, Berg & Hauck / The Bitter Truth old time aromatics bitters, French brandied cherry.
The old time aromatic bitters seem more spice-forward than the Angostura which has more caramel/warm notes in comparison.
I really like the Michter's, it's great for mixing and fabulous for sipping too.
