Description

Atamán is a traditional Barbadillo brand, which was once hugely popular, but got lost somewhere along the way. Thanks to Armando Guerra, Barbadillo’s ‘special projects’ guy, it has been rediscovered as a small batch production of Vermut (note, it’s not referred to as ‘Vermouth’ in Andalusia, but Vermut). It is made using a Manzanilla base, and blended with a small portion of incredibly concentrated old Vermouth and rare vinos quinados (Quinine wines), which have been ageing in the Barbadillo cellars for circa 50 years. Vinos quinados are typically bitter, aromatised aperitivos made from chinchona bark, the main source of Quinine, which became a wonder drug used to treat malaria, among other health dispositions, in the 18th century when it was introduced to Europe. Atamán Vermut is comprised of 20 different aromatics, locally sourced from Andalusia: quassia bark (amargo), absinth, rosemary, elderberry, and of course, the defining feature of Andalusia’s foodscape – the Seville orange.

Atamán sits up on a high pedestal as THE ultimate dirty-martini vermut. The bitter charm and savoury glory of artichoke and green olive brine balance superbly with the juxtaposing muscovado sugar, sweet Seville orange peel, and eucalyptus. This Vermut is complex, elegant, and, in its own spectacularly bitter way, loaded with charisma. By all means, pour it on ice with a citrus garnish – delicious! - but if you are going to choose one way to drink this Vermut – it is with olives and (lots of) gin!

Wines of Spain

With 2.9 million acres of land planted in wine grapes, Spain is the most widely planted wine producing nation and second largest producer in the world. Many styles of wine are produced in the country most of which are based on native grape varietals.

The two most famous regions are Rioja and Ribera del Duero for their Tempranillo production. Rioja Tempranillo (the classic) will be lighter and fresher with red fruit flavours as compared to those from Ribera del Duero that are often deep purple, higher in alcohol with more tannins and intense black fruit character. Rioja is also known for producing Garnacha (Grenache), as well as rich, nutty whites from the indigenous Viura varietal.

In the Catalonia region, Spain is recognized for making a sparkling wine in the traditional method but using native grape varieties. This is called Cava. Priorat, a subregion within Catalonia specializes in making still red blends of Garnacha, Carignan and often Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon in a bold and full-bodied style. Together with Rioja, wines from Priorat have achieved DOCa/DOQ status signifying their quality.

Sherry is Spain’s famous fortified wine which can either be completely dry, lusciously sweet or somewhere in between. This is made in the southern region of Jerez.

Other notable Spanish wine styles include: Monastrell (AKA. Mataro/Mourvèdre), produced in the Jumilla region and refreshing white Albariño and Verdejo from north western Galacia.
