In the Heart of Penedes we find Mascaró Destillery where they make their Vermouth as did the Grandfather Mr. Siset. Mascaró is characterized as a house that has been producing delicious distillates, wines and cavas for more than three generations. After recovering the formula of Grandfather Siset goes to the market to stay and enjoy the best vermouths in the world.
Since 1946 MASCARÓ family has been concerned with controlling the quality of their products throughout the entire production process, from the vineyard to the bottling. The wine they use to make this vermouth is a Parellada variety and comes from their vineyard "Mas Miquel", former property of the Monks of the neighboring Cistercian Monastery of Santes Creus (Tarragona).
They have also used holandas from the soleras of Narciso Mascaró, founder of the company, which was popularly known as "Siset". The holandas are of the Ugni Blanc variety.
The taste and aroma characteristic of vermouth is provided by a group of plant species of the genus Artemis, juniper, cardamom and orange.
