Three Two One Martini (3:2:1 Martini)
A riff on a Fifty-Fifty Martini with, as the name suggests, three-parts gin, two-parts dry vermouth, and one-part bianco vermouth

Tasty with Luxardo Bitter Bianco. A little too easy-drinking and moreish for my taste. Thanks Simon for presenting me with an approachable Martini my guests will be pestering me for more of.

What a wonderful Martini. So perfectly balanced. My second favourite variation.

I love gin, but I don't like the regular Martini.
Making it with 50 ml, 30 ml Dry and 10 ml White seems like a nice balance to me.

Playing with substituting blanco for rosso vermouth in a "Perfect" Martini recipe, I found it rather sweeter, even using olives in place of orange rind. I should have tried this recipe instead - and I will - as it seems to be the right "perfect" martini that still looks like a martini! ;-)

OK - tried this without lemon twist using stuffed Spanish green olives (they're easier to get here and look fancier) and it's a lot more balanced but perhaps still a bit on the sweet side? Definitely a recipe I want to play around with more though (6:4:1/3:2:0.5 perhaps?) but definitely more what I expected of a "perfect martini" than the rosso version, nice though it is.

Our favourite no-nonsense Martini...wet-ish with a whisp of sweetness.

btw If you would welcome an underlying gentle voluptuousness, Contratto Vermouth Bianco is the go.
It also works with a couple of pickled onions!
