“Vieux Carre” in proportions

There is much debate about proportions for a Vieux Carre.

Here are my favorite ratios with this classic cocktail:

1 oz rye whiskey
.75 oz Cognac
.75 oz sweet vermouth (I like Carpano Antica)
Barspoon of Benedictine
A few dashes each of Angostura and Peychauds bitters

Build in the glass on a large ice cube, stir until it is cold…
