THE TEMPLES OF THE COCKTAIL MARTINI

La Bagnaia Golf & Spa Resort Siena

The Martini cocktail at La Bagnaia, a splendid resort with golf course near Siena, is a serious affair. The yellowish colour of this Martini is due to the fact that the young and eager bartender knew the qualities of the Carpano Vermouth and was prepared to mix it in one of my favourite Martinis; slightly bitter, well-balanced when confronted with the mellow notes of the rose-flavoured Hendrick's, this mix proved to be a nice relief after 18 holes fought along the golf course that Robert Trent-Jones designed in a day when he was in a very sadistical mood
