The Dirty Martini takes a standard gin martini and brings in a bit of olive brine, which brings additional salt which changes the overall flavor profile.
Notes:
Bright gin flavor against a light salty brine, yet still gin forward with an off-dry finish.

One historical theory behind the Martini is that it was all born out of a modified Martinez cocktail in California during the 1800s gold rush. A variation on this theory involves a miner on their way to Martinez California requesting a drink and the Martini was born.
Notes:
Potent gin botanical attack, fortified wine and an off-dry finish
