Comoz Vermouth de Chambéry Blanc is produced by Maison Dolin from the classic 1881 recipe created by Jean-Pierre Comoz, who left Dolin in 1856 to found his eponymous house.  Comoz is credited with creating the first ‘pale-style’ vermouth, what is now categorized as ‘blanc’.  The only vermouth blanc sold in Cuba, it was the defining element of the famous El Presidente cocktail.  Comoz remained in family hands until 1981, when the house ceased production and closed.  Maison Dolin later acquired the marque and recipe and in conjunction with Haus Alpenz have now reintroduced this piece of cocktail history to a new generation.
