📝 Description: The Mixellany Guide to Vermouth & Other AP Ritifs

This resource explores the remarkable history of aromatized wines and spirits as well as the secrets of their production. The authors delve into the reasons why vermouths and other apritifs have been so misunderstood and undervalued since the end of Prohibition in the United States and suggest that it is time to have a change of heart.

It reads more like a manifesto than a practical manual, lacking the concrete details one expects in a technical guide. This book will likely disappoint readers looking for immediate mixing recipes or detailed tasting notes. However, for those interested in the broader cultural narrative of spirits, it offers a gentle introduction to the subject. The tone appears earnest but somewhat thin on substance due to the sparse cataloging data.
