An incredibly good red vermouth which was originally used to make the Martinez (the grandfather of the martini). Each bottle of Antica Formula is individually numbered, and it really does make a great Manhattan, as well as being an excellent digestif.
Yes! Always wary due to the cost then my son bought me a bottle - and it has just disappeared - never seen evaporation this quick ( sush my wife might read this ). It does have a slight "medical" aroma but it just levels out the gin and bitters of a really good Negroni. Equal measures Beefeater Crown Jewel Gin (my last bottle ! ) Antica Formula Martini Reserva Speciale Bitters Cannot help you with the gin that one is now Unicorn horn but use a good gin and sit back and enjoy
Great vermouth for the perfect Negroni.
Simple the best vermouth, fruity, sweet, bitter, bold and rich. If you want to made the best Negroni or Manhattan you can go wrong.
So rich, full and fruity. Delicious in a Manhattan but a little overpowering in a Negroni for me.
I really wanted to think this was spectacular. Its got great intensity, and a good combination of bitterness and sweetness, and the complexity of flavours is very impressive, but...well, there's a faint aroma I can only describe as "just walked into a pharmacy". And it's pervasive. As the flavours all rebalance around the whiskey in my Manhattan, the medicinal nose is still there. You end up with something that feels like "medicine that's surprisingly pleasant" - great when you're unwell as a child and are dreading something icky, but not what you actually want a cocktail to taste like. Only used in Manhattans so far (as well as a little nip when first opened) but I shall explore in greater depth...
