Introduction
Vermouth, a fortified wine flavored with aromatic herbs and spices, holds a storied place in the annals of both history and mixology. At The Epicurean Trader, we pride ourselves on curating an exquisite selection of artisan vermouth, each chosen for its quality and unique flavor profile.
What is Vermouth?
Vermouth originated as a medicinal tonic, with its roots tracing back to ancient times. Today, it is cherished for its complexity and versatility in the bar. Made by infusing wine with a blend of herbs, spices, barks, and roots, vermouth is primarily categorized into dry and sweet, each bringing its unique essence to cocktails and aperitifs.
The Role of Vermouth in Craft Spirits
In the craft spirits community, vermouth is celebrated for its ability to elevate cocktails with its nuanced flavors. Its versatility makes it a staple in classics like the Martini and the Manhattan, showcasing its critical role in both traditional and innovative mixology.
Exploring Dry Vermouth
Dry vermouth, known for its crisp and aromatic profile, is perfect for those who appreciate a less sweet aperitif. It pairs wonderfully with seafood and light pastas, and is indispensable in the creation of a perfect Dry Martini. Explore our menu for cocktail ideas and more.
