IBA Classic Christmas Alcoholic

El Dry Martini es un clásico IBA Unforgettables y quizás el cóctel más icónico del mundo, elaborado con una mezcla basada en ratios de gin y una restringida cantidad de vermut seco, servido en copa de cóctel fría con una oliva o espiral de limón. El ratio de gin a vermut ha sido debatido interminablemente, con los paladares modernos tendiendo hacia expresiones muy secas que utilizan vermut mínimo. Puede removerse o agitarse según la preferencia.

History & Origins

The Martini's origins are fiercely disputed, with competing claims tracing it to 19th-century California and to New York. The earliest documented recipes from the 1880s and 1890s included sweet vermouth, and the modern dry version evolved through the early 20th century as dry vermouth became fashionable. The IBA recognizes the Dry Martini as one of its canonical Unforgettable classics.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: pronounced juniper and gin botanicals with a whisper of the floral, herbal dry vermouth. Palate: clean, crisp, and intensely spirit-forward, with a soft herbal complexity from the vermouth and a subtle briney note from the olive garnish. Finish: long, dry, and botanical with a warming gin heat.

Pro Tip

Chill the cocktail glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes before straining, and stir — not shake — for at least 30 seconds with large, clear ice to achieve proper dilution without cloudiness.
