Notes
On the base spirit, and ratios
This recipe from Death & Co calls for a higher-proof rye and in a greater amount than, say, the 2:1 ratio in this Liquor.com variant. You could also opt for bourbon (generally sweeter) and tweak the ratios to suit your tastes. As with many classics, the choice is yours.
Sweet vermouth
Death & Co uses a 50/50 blend of Dolin Rouge and Punt e Mes as their house vermouth. Any quality sweet vermouth works.
