The quality to price ratio is very favorable here as this terrific Vermouth is worth every penny.
Analysis
La Quintinye Vermouth Royal is a specialty Vermouth brand crafting their unique spirits with wines from the Southwest of France, Pineau des Charentes, and selected botanicals. This extra dry is perfectly balanced with crisp and tart flavors that will marry well with London Dry style Gin especially those with a high juniper profile.

The secret ingredient in your perfect classic martini.
