Martini Extra Dry 1L

Martini Extra Dry offers a crisp, herbaceous profile built on white wine foundations. The nose presents clean herbal notes with chamomile and artemisia, while the palate delivers botanical complexity with wormwood bitterness and subtle floral undertones. The finish is clean and moderately dry without sweetness, making it ideal for balancing spirits in classic cocktails.

Martini Extra Dry is produced in Italy by the historic Martini & Rossi house. The vermouth showcases a traditional blend of white wines infused with artemisia and other botanicals, representing the Italian vermouth-making tradition that has influenced cocktail culture worldwide since the late 19th century.

For a classic dry martini, combine 60ml gin or vodka with 10ml Martini Extra Dry in a mixing glass with ice. Stir gently for about 30 seconds to chill and dilute, then strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a lemon twist or olive. Adjust the vermouth ratio to taste, though modern preferences tend toward drier ratios.

Martini Extra Dry works beautifully in a range of classic cocktails beyond the martini. Use it in a Perfect Manhattan alongside sweet vermouth, add a splash to a Negroni for complexity, or experiment with modern variations like the Vesper. It also enhances gin-based cocktails where you want botanical depth without added sweetness.

Martini Extra Dry makes a thoughtful gift for anyone building their home bar or developing their cocktail skills. As an essential ingredient for classic mixed drinks, it demonstrates practical value while introducing the recipient to proper cocktail techniques. Pair it with quality gin or cocktail tools for a complete gift set.
