Background

Tasting Notes

Carpano Classico is a product that begins in the ‘900 and is the classic Italian Vermouth, with its Carpano character that emerges in cocktails: decisive, with zesty scents that persist in your mouth. Its taste both sweet and bitter is perfectly balanced, thanks also to the fresh bitter oranges and burned sugar which gives it its particular amber color.

In its original recipe, the spiced and zesty notes harmonize with each other, complementing the taste with the aromas stemming from absinthe and making this classic vermouth balanced, and perfect for mixology.

Its red amber colour, with hints of topaz, results, to the nost, strong, hot and rich of characterizing botanical notes like from cardamom honey and cinnamon. Sipping it at first, the taste is sweet and fortified thanks to the burned sugar; it then evolves in spices and wine-like notes and finally closes with a persistent taste of citrus.
