The Naught Martinez

The Martinez cocktail, a precursor to the modern martini, is a captivating concoction that harks back to the golden era of mixology. Comprising gin, sweet vermouth, Maraschino liqueur, and a dash of aromatic bitters, it weaves together a symphony of flavours that dance on the palate.

The Martinez strikes a fine equilibrium between the botanical depth of our gin and the luscious sweetness of vermouth and Maraschino, resulting in a harmonious fusion of tastes.

Often garnished with a lemon twist or cherry, this timeless libation is a testament to the art of balance and a nostalgic voyage into the cocktail heritage of a bygone era, capturing the essence of sophistication and indulgence in every sip.
