About the Project

A totally useful martini database, with a twist.

We are living in a golden age of martinis. The Martini Project separates the crisp from the cringe, the briny from the bland, and the “wait, where is this?” from the “send this to the group chat immediately.”

Tonight’s safest bets

A few fast picks for people who need a martini plan, not a spreadsheet.

Find Your Perfect Pour

Filter the field guide

Choose the vibe, borough, pour profile, and score range. If nothing shows up, the martini gods are asking you to loosen the criteria.

No martinis found.

A tragedy. Try fewer filters or pick a borough with more chaos.

The TA TA Method

Our very scientific scoring system

Taste, Ambiance, Temperature, and Accoutrement. Four categories. Four olives. Many feelings.

40%

Taste

Is it smooth, briny, crisp, balanced, and worthy of another round?

20%

Ambiance

Does the room make the martini taste better, or should this have been a beer?

🫒 🫒 🫒 🫒
30%

Temperature

Cold enough to feel correct. Bonus points for condensation and a pre iced glass.

Accoutrement

Olives, sidecars, fixins, garnish drama, and every tiny detail that matters.
