Also, I use antica instead of cheap vermouth.
And always up. None of that "on the rocks" shit.

All good information. I have never heard of that. Very interesting and I may look for it.
And I need to up my vermouth game. I use the cheaper stuff and I realize I am bastardizing the drink. I always add both orange and angostura bitter to mine. I usually have mine straight up but will occasionally pour over an ice sphere. The rocks shit just waters it down too quick.
