WINE MAKING PROCESS
oTTo'S Athens Vermouth begins with a base of high-quality Greek wine, specifically Muscat. This wine is then fortified to 17% ABV. The defining characteristic of its production is the infusion process, where the fortified wine is combined with a proprietary blend of botanicals. These botanicals are predominantly sourced from Greece, with nearly 93% of the ingredients being local. The infusion process is designed to extract the aromatic and flavor compounds from ingredients such as rose petals, wormwood, citrus fruits, olive leaves, oregano, and angelica. The recipe was developed over several years by a team of bartenders, aiming to create a vermouth that reflects both historical Greek traditions and modern mixology.
