Vermouth
Vermouth is aromatised wine a base of wine fortified to 15-22% ABV and infused with a blend of botanicals, of which wormwood (Artemisia absinthium or A. pontica) is the defining ingredient. European production divides into French dry style (pioneered in Chambery by Dolin), Italian bianco and rosso styles (Turin/Piemonte, Carpano), and Spanish styles (Mediterranean, sherry-adjacent). All are made for immediate consumption unlike spirits, vermouth oxidises once opened.
Vermouth is the functional backbone of a wide range of classic cocktails: Martini, Negroni, Manhattan, Rob Roy, Americano. For programs building these in house, the vermouth choice is not background it defines the cocktail's flavour profile as much as the base spirit. Bouchon's vermouth range covers the key production regions and styles for on-premise use, from dry French styles through to rich Italian rosso.
