The Journey of Artemisia 

Last week for the first time ever, the new creation by the spirits and historian duo Jared Brown/ Anastatia Miller

have presented their new book : Vermouth & Other Liqueurs with a dedicated seminar to the main plan used for the production of Vermouth : The Artemisia.

“The use of aromatic plants and spices to prepare beverages dates back to ancient Mediterranean history. This seminar will present the historical and current use of The Artemisia Absenthum (Wormwood) in the aromatization of different types of alcoholic beverages, from Vermouth to Absinthe to Liquors.”

Legislative aspects and their effects throughout the course of history will also be explored and we will discover the use of such a herb in modern cocktails and its interpretation by the modern mixologist.

Cocktail Guru Ago Perrone with the collaboration of Simone Caporale and Rusty Cerven have mixed libation base on Vermouth and Liqueur for a trade audience with journalist, writers and bartenders.

The Vermouth book is available on mixellany.com or amazon.com
