HISTORY & LEGACY

In 1996, Javier de las Muelas took over the project, bringing an innovative vision and expanding the Dry Martini universe without losing the essence of the original.
For more than four decades, Dry Martini has consolidated its place as a global icon, recognized among the world’s best bars. Today, it remains a timeless reference that combines tradition, elegance and excellence in every cocktail.
