Dolin Dry (FR)
Alcohol: 17.5%
From 1815 onwards, Joseph Chavasse, the 25-year-old founder of the Dolin Vermouth distillery, cre-ated exceptional aromas from fruits and plants from this special region of France. In Echeles en Savoie, in the French province of Mont Blanc, he worked intensively on these special extractions of the aromas. He was inspired by the aperitifs until 1821 when he offered his own vermouth, the Dolin Vermouth Dry, for tasting. In 1919 the brothers Charles and Joseph Sevez took over the Dolin Vermouth distillery, which is still owned by the family.
Taste: Dolin Vermouth Dry is a characteristic dry vermouth wine from France. His liquor distiller Joseph Chavasse combined the best white wines from the Savoy with wild French alpine herbs. These produce the fresh but dry aromatic taste of wormwood with fine acids. To this day, the wine is one of the classics of the highest quality. It is characterised by its delicate light green colour and its fruity, spicy notes. Its bitter but at the same time sweet taste creates a silky texture on the palate. The Dolin Vermouth Dry captivates with its unobtrusive yet highly aromatic taste. Freshness and elegance are convincing in this velvety soft wormwood, whose recipe is unchanged from the beginning.

Dolin White (FR)
Alcohol: 16%
Dolin Vermouth Blanc is more complex and sweeter than the “Dry”, our French white vermouth contains around 32 plants and spices. Hibiscus, basil, cinnamon as well as artemisia and gentian from the Alps are just a few of them! You can enjoy this white Dolin vermouth “on the rocks” or add a fruit liqueur in the tradition of “Chambery-cassis”, which was one of Hemingway’s favourites. Try white Dolin vermouth in a cocktail, it adds a spicy touch.

Punt e Mes (IT)
Alcohol: 16%
While Fernet Branca is a bitter liqueur from the Amado category, Punt e Me is a traditional vermouth from Piedmont. Italian vermouth is dark in colour and has a characteristic, slightly bitter to sweet taste. In addition to the main ingredient wormwood, other herbs and spices are used. The brand name can be translated as “a point and a half”. By this they mean that the recipe supposedly relies on half a portion of bitterness and a portion of sweetness. The Punt e Mes vermouth is often used as a substitute for regular red vermouth in cocktails such as Manhattan, Americano, Boulevardier and Negroni. Until 2011, Vermouth was produced by Carpano in Turin before Fratelli Branca took over the brand. Vermouth is most commonly enjoyed as an aperitif, although it shouldn’t necessarily be compared to Campari.

50ml – 5.00 EUR
100ml – 8.50 EUR
Carpano Rosso (IT)
Alcohol: 16%
The Carpano Classico Vermouth Rosso is a truly classic vermouth based on Antonio Benedetto Carpano’s original recipe. Its color derives from the 100% natural burnt sugar, which also gives the product an essential aromatic note. Like all Carpano products, this vermouth contains no artificial colors, preservatives or additives.
Tasting Note: Compared to the Antica Formula, the Carpano Classico Rosso has less intense citrus and vanilla notes, giving it a more “robust” character. Its spicy, citrusy notes combine with the typical vermouth notes, giving this classic vermouth its unique smooth taste.

50ml – 5.50 EUR
