Made it with Bulleit and homemade Grenadine. So much better than with Rose's syrup
I liked the following ratios: 1 1/2 oz rye, 1 oz vermouth, 3/4 oz lemon, 3/4 oz grenadine (Haigh's recipe).

Just tried this last night and really loved it. The light spices of the dry vermouth play off the other ingredients in wonderful ways. I made it with Rittenhouse 100 which seemed to have the perfect heft to set off the other ingredients but also made the drink pretty kick-ass strong. I think this will be in my regular rotation for a while.
