Comoz Blanc Vermouth de Chambéry

FROM HAUS ALPENZ: Established in 1856, Comoz was the second-oldest of Chambéry vermouth producers after Dolin and the first to produce in a crystal-clear style. (Dolin preceded with a sweet pale, rather than crystal clear, blanc vermouth.) Introduced in 1881, Comoz Vermouth Blanc expressed Claudius Comoz’s selection of wines, plants, and fruits, many from the hills above Chambéry. Comoz came to fame as the essential vermouth in the El Presidente cocktail in Cuba. Less sweet than other vermouth blanc, with notes of stone fruits, alpine flowers, and a deep, resonant undercurrent of wormwood—a profile that marries with whiskey better than any other pale vermouth.
