Producer history Cardamaro

The recipe dates back to the 1950s and originates from Rachele Torlasco Bosca, the family's herbalist. Over time the blend was refined by the family's technicians and the product has been marketed as a traditional Canelli 'vino amaro'. The company producing it today is linked to the Tosti/Giovanni Bosca group, the historic Canelli winery founded in 1820.
