Recipe quantities with OCR ambiguity checked visually: Manhattan 2.5 oz bourbon and 0.75 oz vermouth; Seelbach 0.5 oz Cointreau. Attribute variants, do not assert one universal canonical recipe or relative sweetness. Old cocktail origin dates still require primary corroboration; Seelbach's story is lore with an identified correction, not pre-Prohibition evidence.
Carlton, 2017, first edition. E-reader screen captures; not printed page numbers.
The appendix gives Carlton's old-fashioned, bourbon Manhattan, Seelbach and Chris Zaborowski's family mint julep/syrup recipes. Screen 279 specifically reports Adam Seger’s 2016 disclosure that the Seelbach's purported pre-Prohibition rediscovery story was invented. Recipe choices show sweetness, bitters, citrus, fortified-wine and carbonation effects, not a whiskey-only blending method.
