1. Story

 It is called the'King of Cocktails'. Ernest Hemingway, President Roosevelt, and Prime Minister Churchill are known for their favorite cocktails. It is also a delicate cocktail with more than 10 types such as sweet martini and perfect martini depending on the proportion of dry vermouth, and more than 130 depending on the ingredients. Martini's name was Martini&Rossi, an Italian company that made vermouth in the 1980s, and it came to the fore by making recipes and popularizing them to promote their liquor.

 With its transparent color, you can feel the aroma of olive and the taste of clean gin. If you eat it before meals, you can enjoy the food even more delicious. Both gin and vermouth have a subtle yet heavy taste rather than a strong scent. Basically, it contains 2 oz of gin, so it is on the high side. I think it's a cocktail that's perfect for a drink while reading a novel alone on a fall day. It will double the fun of reading without disturbing your reading. I hope the content is a bit heavy. Each person enjoys martinis in their own way, so having your own personality is the way to enjoy martini. That's why martinis is praised as the best cocktail. Respect for diversity.
