300 posts so far, plus big ups for vermouth

What the heck is vermouth anyway? Even when you put it in a martini there are people who get upset that they aren't drinking straight gin/vodka. Well, last night I had some vermouth as an apertif (I was curious how horrible it was, considering all the bad PR it gets, so I poured out a little, which led to a little more, which led to, oh, why not have an itty bitty glass — hey, that glass was a little bigger than I thought) and although it was sweet vermouth (whoops, got the wrong one at the liquor store) it was kind of herbally and I'm pretty easy to please in the alcohol department, and I have to say, don't playa hate on the vermouth.

There has to be a reason d'etre for sweet vermouth, though. I am not much of an apertif person.
