Sapphire 5-1 ratio with dry vermouth & three olives. For years I did parched martinis with a few drops or light coating of vermouth or just thinking the word quietly. I discovered that they are so much smoother and tastier (to me) if you actually use vermouth as intended. I also like my vodka but typically will just get it really cold and throw in a twist of lemon and not bother with a martini per se.
