Serve at the Right Temperature: Pour aperitifs and vermouths chilled or over ice before meals, while digestifs shine at room temperature or slightly chilled after dining.
Use the Proper Glass: Choose a rocks glass for aperitifs on the rocks, a coupe for vermouth cocktails, or a cordial glass for digestifs.
Enjoy Before or After Meals: Sip aperitifs and vermouths before dining to stimulate appetite, or enjoy digestifs after meals to aid digestion and satisfaction.
Sip and Appreciate the Balance: Take small sips to taste herbal and botanical complexity, notice how bittersweet flavors cleanse or settle the palate, and explore fortified wines.
