Beginning in the 1850s, and up until the start of the Spanish Civil War, the town of Reus, on the country’s northeastern coast, was the center of the Catalan wine trade. Producers from Penedes, Priorat and Terra Alta would bring their wines and brandies to Reus to sell, and by 1900 the town ranked with Paris and London in commercial importance. It also became a center of vermouth production, with as many as 30 firms in production at one time. The house of Emilio Miro is one of the few survivors from that era, and unquestionably the most prominent, and the tradition of La Hora del Vermut is once again a late afternoon event throughout Spain and especially in Catalonia. The star of the “Vermouth Hour” is invariably this well rounded and wormwood-forward sweet red vermouth still being produced by the house of Emilio Miro.
