From the mixologist at the Garden & Gun Club at Stitzel-Weller Distillery, the Limoncello Manhattan marries the rich, caramel notes of Blade and Bow bourbon with the citrusy sweetness of limoncello. Sweet vermouth and a dash of Angostura bitters add depth, while toasted almond bitters bring a warm, nutty finish. Served in a chilled coupe and garnished with a lemon swath, this cocktail is a refreshing yet sophisticated sip.
