Shouldn't we open a thread with vermouth recipes and discussion? I can't find nothing about it in this forum.
you just did, but isn't vermouth a distilled beverag
infusionated and fortified wine.
like i said distilled? like distilled wine made like gin with different infusinations, and added back to wine?
maybe i'm off on this....but 'fortified' means distilled wine added back to the batch right? and in this case i 'assume' the distilling is made like they make gin?
What botanicals are in vermouth anyway?
I thought it was more like wormwood (but not much), anise, and nutmeg.and the most important question is asked!
maybe just heat up some ever clear to 160f, or something then strain it..
quainine, and lau'b'dnum, seem of interest....

there's a start...

I was thinking of making my own, as well as possibly steeping vodka to make a bargain gin. Here's what I found on vermouth.

I bought a bottle of dry white vermouth last week when I saw it in the bargain bin at the liquor store. Wasn't sure what to do with it, so I tasted it. It was really not that herbal, and not particularly bitter. Like some kind of a premixed white wine cocktail that wasn't very good (but it wasn't bad either.) I just drank it neat over several days and won't buy it again -- at least I won't buy that brand again and won't be in a hurry to try a different brand.

Get this. If you can't taste the herbs in there, I guess your palate is shot. I think it's strongly herbal.
