Well-balanced, herbal sweetness, dominated by vermouth (hence the name), with faint maraschino, but perhaps the most important ingredient is the most hidden...
Just had this as a perfectly fitting elevenses cocktail. What an amazing drink—both light and complex. I adhered to the specs and used a just-opened bottle of dry vermouth. First, I tried it with approx. 6 ml of sugar syrup, and after a taste, I adjusted it to 7.5 ml. Now, after finishing the drink, I reckon I should have stayed with the 6 ml of syrup. Anyhow, I cannot wait to introduce this cocktail to my friends for a late morning or afternoon gathering.
