Overall impression

Vermut El Mallorquín is the premium vermouth from Bodegas Suau (Marratxí, Mallorca), a historic brandy distillery founded in 1851 and an island reference in spirits. According to bodegassuau.com, it starts from 90% Airén white wine —the same variety behind Brandy Suau— and 10% Mallorcan Malvasía, infused with Mediterranean herbs; it then ages six months in barrels that previously held Brandy Suau, lending a unique character tied to the house wood. A high-end, limited-production expression versus everyday Mallorcan vermouth on tap; light brown colour with orange rims per the official sheet. 15% vol., 70 cl format. For Vermutpedia, El Mallorquín documents premium Balearic vermouth linked to Suau's brandy legacy: local grapes, Mediterranean botanicals and distillery barrel ageing.

Nose and palate

Pending evaluation.

How to serve it

Very cold, neat or on ice; island distributors and the winery also recommend a sprig of rosemary as a Mediterranean garnish. Works for aperitifs with preserves, sobrasada, Mahón cheese and seafood in a Balearic key.
