    I haven’t settled on a preferred ratio yet but I certainly like them more ”wet" than a lot of people. I don’t get why folks like huge amounts of gin sometimes skipping the vermouth entirely… that’s not a cocktail anymore 😄

    Even 1:1 might be good for me but I have to experiment more. I’m not even versed in the types of vermouth yet 😅

      Finally someone who likes them really wet! Seriously, vermouth tastes so good! You definitely have to like the vermouth you’re using when you’re doing these wet ratios, but no one would drink dry martini with a gin they hate, either.

      Re: types of vermouth, IMO gin works with any type of vermouth, even if it’s not a Martini anymore with sweet vermouth (19th century bartenders might disagree, but y’know).
