Where in the world was the famous dry martini created and by whom?

0

The inventor of the dry martini is lost in history’s haze. Some romantic gin-and-vermouth scholars say it was St. Martin of Tours, patron of tosspots. Others hold that a tipsy barkeep at San Francisco’s Palace Hotel happened on the formula by accident before World War I. The Italian vermouth company, Martini & Rossi, is sometimes credited with first honors, and an 1862 bartender’s manual describes a “martinez” which contains the basic ingredient but adds maraschino and bitters.
