Mr. Mug Sweet Vermouth

A handcrafted New Zealand sweet vermouth made from Hawke's Bay Pinot Gris, native honey, and locally grown botanicals.

Mr. Mug Sweet Vermouth is New Zealand's first dedicated vermouth, handcrafted in small batches using Hawke's Bay Pinot Gris as its foundation. Created by The NZ Vermouth Co., this distinctive aperitif combines traditional vermouth-making techniques with locally sourced New Zealand ingredients to create a uniquely Kiwi expression.

The recipe features carefully selected botanicals including mugwort, wormwood, chamomile, citrus peel, and other aromatic herbs grown and foraged from the Waikato region. Native New Zealand honey adds natural sweetness and depth, balancing the gentle bitterness that defines classic sweet vermouth.

Rich, aromatic, and complex, Mr. Mug Sweet Vermouth can be enjoyed chilled over ice, lengthened with soda water, or used as a premium ingredient in classic cocktails such as the Negroni, Manhattan, and Americano. Its floral notes, subtle spice, and bittersweet finish make it a versatile addition to any home bar.
