9 di Dante Inferno Vermouth takes inspiration from the Nine Circles of Hell as mentioned in the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. It features 27 botanicals, including nine that the producers have linked to each circle: wormwood is Limbo; cardamom is lust; bitter orange peel is gluttony; cumin is greed; basil is anger; nettle is heresy; tansy is violence; fennel is fraud; caraway in treachery.
Suitably warming and spicy, with a kick of clove and cumin amongst the orange peel and softly oaky red wine richness.
Bold taste and perfect bitter-sweet balance
Sublime. Vermouth could be the way forward and this is a seriously sexy way of embracing it
A barman friend of ours introduced us to it in a Martinez. First time trying this cocktail and vermouth, both epic.
Came across it end of last year in Milan and really enjoyed it. Great to have it here in the UK now. Has taken Negronis to a new level.
