A single cask vermouth from Lacuesta, a renowned winery that ages its vermouth in oak barrels, bottled by Malaysian independent spirits bottler Eiling Lim.

One year ago when the first MCO was announced, I decided to make a cocktail every day and post it on my Instagram as my “Daily MCO Drink”. Since then, I’ve made a single, different cocktail for every day (except two) for the past year. Yes, that’s an entire year of cocktails.

When I started making those daily drinks, I thought I’d run out of one of the base spirits first. While I did go through quite a bit of gin and bourbon at first, surprisingly, it was my vermouth bottles that were emptied first.
