Since 1884, Yzaguirre has been among Spain's leading vermouth makers, based in the town of Morell in Tarragona, Catalonia. The kosher edition Rojo is la autentica formula. It is a sweet red vermouth, full-bodied and made from 100% Macabeo grapes, and it is ready for a Negroni, a Manhattan, or an aperitivo over ice.
Mood: bittersweet, herbal, aperitivo.
A serious kosher red vermouth was hard to find for years. Yzaguirre solves it, deep, herbal, and unmistakably Spanish. Cold in a rocks glass with an orange peel is all you need.
Tasting Notes
It is full-bodied and the color of cola. Caramelized orange, gentle bitter herbs, and a whisper of clove lift from the nose. Sweet and layered on the palate, it brings dark caramel, dried orange peel, and warm baking spice over a bitter herbal backbone. A long, mellow finish leaves wormwood and citrus lingering.
Food Pairing
Pour it over ice with a fat strip of orange peel for a Shabbos aperitivo, make it the base of a proper Negroni, or use it as the sweet vermouth in a Manhattan. Olives, aged Manchego, and hard cured meats go with it as well.
