Equipo Navazos, La Bota de Vermut Blanco 133 Dry Navazos

Martini lovers have strong opinions about the right way to do things (dirty vs. dry, shaken vs. stirred, vodka vs. gin, espresso vs. lychee vs…?), but almost every martini lover overlooks the key second ingredient: dry vermouth. So, martini drinker, I implore you: why not elevate your martini game with something that’s as delicious on its own as it is shaken (or stirred)? La Bota de Vermut Blanco 133, from Equipo Navazos, is just the thing you need to drop the gauntlet. The team starts with a Fino sherry from Jerez, aged for an average of four years under the watchful eye of Eduardo Ojeda, which is then transformed into an aromatized wine. The result is something truly special: a bone dry vermouth that’s simultaneously bright and citrusy and saline. Enjoy with a slice of lemon or an olive, or silence the competition in a martini.
