Shake It Up With Vermouth
This fortified wine is a cocktail essential for the modern bar
Celebrating its 160th anniversary, Martini is an Italian icon. Martini's legendary vermouth is crafted with the company founders’ original recipe, a closely-guarded secret passed down from master blender to master blender. Vermouth is made with 75% wine and fortified with alcohol to preserve and enhance the wine's natural flavours and prevent additional fermentation. Martini vermouth features natural ingredients infused with up to 40 hand-selected botanicals, like herbs and spices with the main botanical being Wormwood, using a signature method to extract the richness. Crafted in three styles—sweet red or rosso, dry, and lighter bianco—it’s traditionally served straight as an aperitif, but over time it’s become a creative bartender’s best friend and an essential ingredient in a range of classic cocktails. Explore the possibilities yourself. Make vermouth a before-dinner drink with a splash of tonic and a citrus twist or mix a Martini, Manhattan or Negroni.
