MARTINI Extra Dry’s rare woods, herbs, citrus and raspberry extracts are the cornerstone of the 20th century’s essential beverage: the Dry Martini cocktail. First introduced on New Year’s Day 1900, after 10 years of development by Luigi Rossi’s sons, MARTINI Extra Dry has in its heart the violet – fragrant Florentine Orris – iris roots grown for three years before being sun – dried.
Caught in every drop is the essence of the rare woods, herbs and citrus that make up this secret recipe. Introduced on January 1, 1900, its sharp citrus aromas and hints of raspberries became a pillar of the cocktail that dominated the century, the Dry Martini® cocktail.
