Dirty Martini

With Oysters, Dirty Martini has enough savory, briny and strong to hold its place beside food. It carries a lean, light body and feels decidedly spirit-forward. Compared with Pegu Club, it leans toward a different balance. The final impression is driven more by strong than by simple sweetness. The index points toward Oysters or Olives at the table; Pegu Club is the nearest place to continue exploring.
