About our Dry Martini
An emblem of wealth since its first appearance on paper in the Bartender's Manual since the 1880s, this classic cocktail became, in the 1950s and 60s, a measure of time for businessmen. At the time, we had “three Martinis dinners”, and not one less! It even gave its name to the glass in which it is served, it has become so iconic of cocktail culture.
