sweet
 DRY - Dry vermouth is also known as white vermouth or French
vermouth.

flavor profile.

vermouth because it is red in color.

other vermouth and can include up to 15 percent sugar.

USES OF VERMOUTH
 DRY - The most common use for dry vermouth is in a classic Martini—
it pairs well with lighter spirits like gin, vodka and tequila. Dry
vermouth can also be used in combination with sweet vermouths or
other sweetened liqueurs (or amaros like Campari) to dry out a
cocktail and make it less saccharine.
 SWEET - Sweet vermouth pairs well with aged spirits like bourbon or
rye, scotch, and dark rum. Classic cocktails that use sweet vermouth
include the Manhattan, Negroni and Rob Roy. While sweet vermouth
can be sipped straight, it’s often too sweet to be enjoyable on its own.
