Founded by four friends — Julian Diaz, acclaimed restaurateur; Agustin Camps, former marketing whizz for IBM, Nestlé, and Diageo; Martín Auzmendi, journalist and founder of Buenos Aires Cocktail Week and La Maratón de Pizza; and, perhaps most intriguingly, Sebastián Zuccardi, the multiple award-winning third-generation winemaker — La Fuerza was born from their shared frustration at the lack of a truly great Argentinian vermouth.
The base of Torrontés is infused with over thirty botanicals sourced from Mendoza and the Andes, creating a beautifully balanced vermouth with a bright, citrus-forward profile. It makes an excellent wet martini — try a 1:1 ratio and garnish with a twist of lemon peel.
