We are changing things up for Vermouth Day with a series of 4 events celebrating vermouth! Alongside the Martini Club social on Zoom, we listened to your responses for our survey and will only supply the ingredients to make the Martinis and we also had a surprising number of people enjoying our Instalives. So we'll also be hosting 3 Instalives with vermouths you may not have tried yet and meeting them to discuss the vermouths over a Martini. The twist? You'll have the vermouths we'll be talking about on the Instalives in hand so you can watch and taste them either live with us or at your leisure and get to try these exciting vermouths.
Monday 21 March, 8pm: Martini Club x Jerry Thomas Project & Del Professore (Zoom)
Simone Onorati from the Jerry Thomas Project, Rome (JTP) and Gianfranco Spada from Del Professore will be joining us to show you the delights of their vermouths and gins and why they were created with classic cocktails in mind.
We're providing the ingredients for three full sized drinks for you to create alongside Simone, and they are:
1. Gibson: Del Professore Fighting Bear Gin & Pickled Vermouth
2. Original Martinez: Zuidam Rogge (Rye) Genever & Del Professore Classico
3. Hanky Panky: Roku Gin & Rosso Vermouth + Fernet Branca
Tuesday 22 March, 8pm: London Vermouth Company (Instalive)
London Vermouth Co have three vermouths, a red, amber and dry, and we've included the Dry and Amber in the pack for you to try. We'll be joined by Guy Abrahams, the founder on the Instalive and presenting the S.E. Dry and Amber Limon vermouths.
Wednesday 23 March, 8pm: 9 di Dante (Instalive)
9 di Dante is a Vermouth di Torino with a brilliant story and inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy and created by Alex Ouziel in partnership with Mario Baralis. They have two vermouths: Inferno (red) and Purgatorio (dry) and we'll be joined by one of the most influential and charismatic bartenders in the world, Danil Nevsky to present it.
Thursday 24 March, 8pm: Cocchi Extra Dry (Instalive)
All of you will be familiar with Cocchi's main vermouths, but they also launched an Extra Dry vermouth which you may not have tried. So we decided to source it and will be joined by them to present it.
