Anyone into vermouth? Went to a great vermouth bar is Copenhagen and really enjoyed it. Looking for suggestions on what to try.

When I make a Gin Martini I always use Dolin. Very popular in high end craft cocktail bars.

Just back from Spain. My wife is a fan of sweet vermouth and likes the fact that most restaurants/cafes/bars in Spain have it on tap. Have never noticed any particular name, but I've never heard her say she's had a bad one.

The wife and I like our Vodka Martinis very dry so I keep the Vermouth in the pantry. I think it is in the pantry.

I keep mine the fridge. Vermouth is a wine so after opening to keep it viable it needs to be refrigerated.

Couple friends like to drink sweet vermouth in a wine glass. But what it's most famous for is Manhattans. Rye and Bourbon. I guess it started about 15 years ago some people like to drink their Manhattans in a frozen martini glass. Thus Manhattan martini of course topped with a cherry..
