Description
Martini Extra Dry’s rare woods, herbs, citrus and raspberry extracts are the pillar of the 20th century’s defining drink: the Dry Martini cocktail. First introduced on New Year’s Day 1900, after 10 years of development by Luigi Rossi’s sons, MARTINI Extra Dry has at its heart the violet-scented tartness of Florentine Orris – iris roots grown for three years before being sun-dried.

Tasting Notes
Clear, pale gold with grassy green tints. Delicate perfume nose with raspberry, peachy melon, apple flesh and skin, lemon and subtle aromas of acacia honey. Apple skin flavor comes to the fore on the palate with a background of orris, slight touches of wood and balanced acidity. Rootier notes emerge mid-palate but are not quite as dry as the “extra dry” might suggest. With light, zesty, fragrant, cinnamon apple, and white peach finish.
Best Paired With
The one and only Martini cocktail is a timeless classic ordered by everyone from Churchill to Hemingway. While the precise recipe is a matter of dispute, here is what we believe to be the perfect ratio.
