Yup! they can do that to you, but what whiskey did you use? and do use a good quality sweet Vermouth, makes a huge difference. And, ideally, that whiskey was a rye. That's the ticket for a killer Manhattan. And I totally agree about quality. Vermouth. No easier way to ruin this wonderful cocktail than with an inferior vermouth. I made the Manhattan with Dickel Rye and Caprano Antica formula. It was pretty tasty.
