Fancy FreevsManhattan
Which one fits your taste?
Fancy Free
A forgotten gem from the Old Fashioned family: bourbon, maraschino liqueur, and a double-bitters finish that's clean and quietly complex.
Manhattan
A smooth, spirit-forward blend of whiskey and sweet vermouth, accented with aromatic bitters. Dark and mysterious.

Which should you pick?
Pick the Fancy Free if you want something more straightforward and clean. Go with the Manhattan if you'd rather have something herbal and aromatic. Both are boozy and spirit-forward and sweet and approachable, so if you enjoy one you'll likely appreciate the other.
