This small California distillery makes nothing but vermouth from regional ingredients and botanicals. They spent years on a quest to find the right ingredients, partners, and processes for the perfect American Vermouth. Along the way, they discovered golden cane sugar caramelized for the impeccable balance of bitter and sweet by experts in the Carolinas; California black mission figs sun-dried by a family with over ninety years’ experience; a UC Davis-developed grape clone to serve as the base; and supportive local ranchers who allowed them to forage Artemisia Californica herbs from their Carmel Valley hillsides. The result is an herbatious and aromatic vermouth worthy of modern American cocktail culture. 750 ml
