The Antica Formula Vermouth by Carpano is an authentic homage to the origins of vermouth, recalling the original recipe from 1786 created by Antonio Benedetto Carpano in Turin, the cradle of this beverage. This vermouth is clearly distinguished by its production which cares for every detail using top-quality ingredients.

In appearance, it presents an intense red, almost amber color, which already anticipates the complexity of its bouquet. To the nose, the Antica Formula Vermouth offers a rich and intriguing aroma; notes of vanilla, exotic spices such as zagara, and rich accents of aromatic roots and balsamics can be recognized. This symphony of aromas is captivating and invites tasting.

On the palate, it confirms its aromatic richness where the sweetness of caramel balances perfectly with tones of quinine and spices, adding depth and a pleasant bitter finish that lingers on the palate. The complexity and harmony of flavors make the Antica Formula Vermouth by Carpano an excellent base for sophisticated cocktails such as the Negroni or Manhattan, as well as being sublime when enjoyed neat, perhaps accompanied by a piece of dark chocolate or candied orange.

This vermouth is not just a drink, but a real sensory experience that tells the story and tradition of Italian mixing, making it an essential item for lovers of superior quality vermouth. A masterpiece that continues to spread the prestige and craftsmanship of Italy worldwide.
