Martini Rosso, introduced in 1863 by Luigi Rossi, is the original expression of the Martini brand and a cornerstone of Italian vermouth tradition. Crafted from a secret blend of over 40 botanicals—including sage, savory, and dittany—infused into a base of carefully selected wines, it offers a complex and harmonious flavor profile. The addition of natural caramel imparts its distinctive scarlet hue and tempers the bittersweet notes of the herbs and spices. On the nose, it presents aromas of dried fruit and spice, while the palate reveals flavors of citrus, vanilla, and a subtle bitterness, culminating in a smooth, herbal finish. 

With an alcohol content of 15% ABV, Martini Rosso is versatile—perfect as a chilled aperitif, over ice with a slice of orange, or as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Negroni and Manhattan.
