Bitter CARPANO ANTICA Formula 75 cl 16.5°

Description

Carpano Antica Formula: a traditional Italian vermouth since 1786

Carpano Antica Formula is a must-try for lovers of Italian vermouth and classic cocktails. Its history began in 1786 in Turin, when Antonio Benedetto Carpano created an original recipe that helped to popularise this category of aperitifs. Today, this cuvée carries on this legacy thanks to the expertise of Fratelli Branca Distillerie. Available in a 75 cl bottle and with an alcohol content of 16.5% vol., this red vermouth stands out for its rich aroma and distinctive character.

Its recipe is based on selected Italian white wines, combined with a complex blend of herbs, spices and aromatic plants. Certain signature ingredients, such as vanilla, saffron and absinthe, contribute to the uniqueness of its profile. Traditional infusion and extraction methods preserve the richness of the raw ingredients and develop a harmonious bouquet.

On the nose, Carpano Antica Formula reveals intense aromas of vanilla, accompanied by notes of citrus, almond, raisins and cloves. On the palate, it is full-bodied, round and generous. The aromatic sweetness is balanced by spicy nuances and a slight bitterness, whilst notes of dried fruit linger on the palate.

This vermouth is a natural fit amongst the great classics of mixology. It is an excellent base for a Negroni, where it is combined with gin and bitters, or for an Americano, with bitters and sparkling water. It can also be enjoyed simply over ice, with a twist of orange, to appreciate the complexity of its aromas.

Carpano Antica Formula 75 cl is therefore a must-have for enthusiasts of Italian cocktails, lovers of premium vermouths and anyone seeking an aromatic aperitif steeped in history.
