Having picked up a bottle of absinthe to add to my cocktail cart, I went in search of a cocktail to use it in and stumbled upon the Sherman, a variation on the Manhattan. Being a fan of Manhattans, I gave it a try.
Rich and alcoholic like a good Manhattan, the absinthe brings more woody notes and a bitterness that cuts the sharpness of the rye whiskey. The absinthe is more forward, hitting first as the strongest scent, with the whiskey and orange bitters lingering longest on the tongue.

My wife's review was less positive... "It tastes like furniture polish or wood that you lick just after you put furniture polish on it."
