Fortified wine from Italy that is distilled with a combination of more than 30 herbs and spices including sage, coriander, allspice and Roman comomile. Dry vermouth means that it is not sweet and fortified means that brandy has been added to it. Used as an ingredient in many cocktails, the most well known being the Martini. Also used in many cooking recipes. It is shelf stable and can be stored without refrigeration for up to a year.
MARTINI Extra Dry vermouth was launched, with great international success, on New Year's Day in 1900. The Company had been experimenting with the production of dry vermouth since 1890 in some foreign countries, such as Cuba, in order to compete with the French "sec" vermouth. A straw colored vermouth with a sharper perfume, it reveals raspberry, lemon and the subtler hints of iris. This aromatic wine is dry without being bitter, with a white wine base it allows the aromas to come alive in the glass.
