i figured. guess it depends on the spritzer.

what is a good brand of vermouth these days? you use Plymouth gin IIRC?

No I think formby was the bigger Plymouth guy. Not that I don't like it or anything. I use Gunpowder for most stuff but No 3 gin or Bombay for martinis.

To be honest I usually just use good old Martini & Rossi white vermouth. I tried some other but most were pretty average for what they cost. For red vermouth though the Carpano Formula Antica is fucking the shit. That's my go to Negroni.

How long would you queue for a bottle of Peroni and some canapes from a local Italian chef who had a few TV shows and now his own line of pasta on supermarket shelves?

This light wine is working out pretty well. 6.5%. It's barely a beer but at a 4L box per weekend it's only 2 1/2 bottles of standard wine. The only thing is I have to refrigerate it so it's not too acidic. No terrible repercussions on my weekend morning workouts as long as I get enough sleep.

This mead is an acquired taste. I hope it is not like that clearance Romanian wine.
