Classic Gin Cocktail 37.5% ABV
Often referred to as the “king of cocktails,” the MARTINI COCKTAIL is a close relative of the Martinez. Incorporated into the Bartender’s Manual in 1888, it has as many recipes as there are stories about its origin.
Once the first martinis were combined with sweet vermouth in the early 20th century, the tangy flavour became more popular and thus influenced the classic MARTINI COCKTAIL. Gin and dry vermouth are the preferred composition today.
This timeless short drink has always been enjoyed in a chilled martini glass and is rounded off with a green olive or a twist of untreated lemon peel. The lemon peel is dropped into the glass as a garnish once the essential oils have been released through twisting. The green olive can be served in the MARTINI COCKTAIL or separately.
Tasting Notes
On the nose: juniper, exotic fruits and notes of licorice
On the palate: dry and tangy sweetness with a zesty kick of berries, a striking undertone of gin
Finish: long and zesty, with a hint of both juniper berry and cinnamon
Overall: a slightly sweet balance of gin and vermouth with a refreshing, zesty character
Preperation
Pour into a mixing glass filled with ice cubes, stir well and strain into a martini glass; drop one dried lemon slice into the cocktail; to finish it off, spray with the atomizer.
