Rediscover Vermouth

The rise in the popularity of cocktails – and particularly gin-based ones – means that the herby, fortified pleasures of vermouth are once again on our lips. A lot of people make cocktails at home these days and according to some research one-in-five people now own a cocktail shaker. It’s this trend for home-mixology that has brought vermouth back from the dead or at least from the dusty corners of the drinks cabinet: it’s a key ingredient in classic cocktails such as the martini (with gin or vodka) and a Manhattan (with whisky and angostura bitters), as well as the kind of original creations that find their way onto Instagram. But the best vermouths don’t need to mingle with other ingredients, try Mancino Rosso Amaranto Vermouth over ice and with a slice of blood orange for a classic, rich, taste sensation.
