● 內文簡介

打開餐廳或酒吧的酒單,我們很少看到苦艾酒(Vermouth),不過如果你想喝一杯可口的雞尾調酒,苦艾酒是不可或缺的成份。

苦艾酒(Vermouth),是一種使用各種乾料調製的加強葡萄酒,最初於18世紀末和19世紀處在義大利和法國出現。剛開始,苦艾酒作為藥用祭酒,直到19世紀後期,它成為許多經典雞尾酒的重要成分,比如馬丁尼(martini)。苦艾酒有各式不同口味,都是拿來調酒用的,很少直接拿來飲。

扮演各式調酒重要角色的苦艾酒,擁有豐富歷史,在《苦艾酒的歷史》(Vermouth)書中,鉅細靡遺介紹這款香氣逼人、強烈的酒的由來背景和文化歷史,包括苦艾酒的興衰,以及在美國的復甦史。

《苦艾酒的歷史》作者Adam Ford是位苦艾酒的製作和歷史的美國專家,在書中,他特別收錄百張照片和插圖介紹苦艾酒,是一本精采絕倫的酒史。
