Drinks Cocktails Whiskey & Bourbon Cocktails Northern Standard 4.0 (1) 2 Reviews This drink is even better a Manhattan, thanks to three different bitter elements. Created by mixologist James Ives, the Northern Standard is a full-flavored cocktail that uses Knob Creek rye aged in charred barrels to balance out the richness of Carpano. Equally strong as it is smooth.
