She did, actually. She said something along the lines of "real men drink their liquor straight." I don't really get that, because most people who drink liquor straight have it on the rocks, which weakens the taste much more than a little sweet vermouth. Also, I think having it up hurts the perception, but I don't like ice in my liquor drinks and I'm not going to so high maintenance to ask for it chilled but in a tumbler.
Maybe to be a real man I should just drink the rye straight out of the bottle.
Not a girlie drink but rye sucks.
This is just a terrible, terrible opinion.Not a girlie drink but rye sucks.
Get it served down, no rocks. I think the martini glass plays a big part in the perception.
I drink my Manhattans on rocks. Sex and the City destroyed the martini glass.
Definitely not girlie. Getting it served up probably makes it slightly less masculine, but not anywhere close to girlie. Take that for what it's worth from the only (I think) female who participated in the boards Four Roses barrel pick.
And rye definitely does not suck.
Manhattan party with different types of bourbons and ryes...y'all in?
