Vermouth is just an underrated option overall as a stand-alone drink.
I like to first sip a new bottle with an ice cube to understand its flavor notes. But I think my favorite way to drink it is with club soda (Canada Dry is pretty much the best club soda with no added minerals — Topo Chico is good if you’re looking for mineralized soda water). So I add about three quarters of a standard rocks glass with club soda over a large whiskey rock style of ice and then pour vermouth directly over, watching it diffuse with the soda to etch out a light cola, dark amber, color.
This ones got notes of mocha, cinnamon, citrus, cocoa, cola, orange peel, and even some spruce.
Really just all around wonderful coffee cola sweet and savory flavors. I prefer a slightly lighter Spanish style sweet vermouth, but this is a good change up.
