“Fem un vermut?” In Catalonia, an invitation to “have a vermouth” has a much<br />
broader meaning than simply the drink itself. That’s because vermouth time<br />
is an almost sacred ritual where friends gather around a glass of vermouth (or<br />
other drinks depending on everyone’s tastes), before lunch, with crisps and a few<br />
olives. The atmosphere is one of casual engagement, shared by everyone, young<br />
and old.<br />
