Find out how the European and American markets are so different for vermouth, and what makes Atsby such a unique spirit. Tune in as Kathline conducts an on-air tastings and Adam walks listeners through a deeper understanding of vermouth. This program was sponsored by Rt 11 Potato Chips.
"Most Americans think of vermouth as a modifier, something that you'd add to a Martini or a Manhattan. Most European producers export to America for mixing. Ours are meant to be drank on their own." [02:00]
