Martini Rosso
Martini Rosso is an iconic drink that almost needs no introduction. Martini Rosso Italian red vermouth was first created in 1863, with that same recipe having been passed down to each of the brand’s Master Herbalists who are sworn to secrecy. It’s made using over 50 herbs and spices including local wormwood, with the colour owing to natural caramel. It claims to be the world’s first red vermouth, and is an absolute staple for a Negroni. Fruity aromas on the nose, with hints of guava and spice, a little pistachio too. Sherry-like palate, with hints of gin botanicals, grapes, oak and spice. Peppery, resinous finish.
Martini & Rossi
The company is named after businessman Alessandro Martini and distiller Luigi Rossi, though it wasn’t always. The company was previously known as Martini, Sola & Cia from 1863 until 1879 - the name was changed when their third partner, accountant Teofilo Sola, died. Over the years they have produced and owned a wide variety of products, from wine to gin, vodka to fernet, but they are arguably most famous for their selection of vermouth. In 1993, the company merged with Bacardi, creating the Bacardi Martini Group.
A legendary spirit, best enjoyed neat over ice or in a cocktail.
