Now that an exhaustive two weeks are over I can devote my free time back to the Jerry Thomas Project (there the Broker’s bitters have currently been brewing for two weeks and should be ready very very soon). I also got a bag of gum arabic – so I can make some true gomme syrup. I overhauled the cocktail list for fall – still want to do a couple of tweaks such as add a deconstruced hot toddy but for the most part I feel this is the best cocktail list I’ve done yet (although I always feel that way when I put the new one out). I wasn’t going to do a pumpkin martini as I felt it was a bit cliche this time of year, but I got so many requests that I relented and man am I glad I did. It came out absolutely delicious and really tastes just like a pumpkin pie.

I was recently at the Blacksmith celebrating an anniversary and ordered the Manhattan Flight. Only the most incredible, absolutely unbelievable tasting Manhattans ever! I loved the first one the most, the one on the card that was closest to me has got me jones-ing. I have scoured your entire site to no avail and was wondering if you could save me the 7 1/2 hour drive by sharing your recipe? After coming across your amazing site, consider me a disciple.
excellent, excellent cocktail list, ideas, and tips on this site. Im very glad i stumbled upon it. cheers
