The pleasure of the test

Olave vermouth is produced at the Bodega Celler Sort del Castell, located in El Morell, province of Tarragona, where vermouth products are already centuries old and much admired. Olave was born in 2014, with the purpose of modernizing and popularizing a new vermouth palate, very attractive and easy to taste.

Its aromas and botanical notes quickly stand out, giving it a special personality and character. For its preparation, we wanted to maintain a classic process, so as not to lose sight of the importance of tradition, where vermouth maintains its essence.
The base is made by macerating a white wine of the Macabeo variety, wine alcohol and between 60/80 aromas and aromatic spices.
We believe that the key to seducing with this drink is always the perfect balance between flavors and essences.
The overall harmony means that Olave is very suitable to accompany with appetizers, seafood or cheeses.

Also in cocktails it combines very well with other liqueurs, which opens up a wide range of possibilities for tasting and enjoying it.
Don't let anyone tell you that you've tried everything, there are always new horizons.
