Cocchi - Di Torino Vermouth 750ml

"Turin vermouth is a collective heritage of the Piedmontese, whose first great promoter was the royal court of Savoy, starting from the end of the 18th century it developed a thriving industry that made Piedmont the kingdom of Vermouth.

The Historic Vermouth of Turin is produced according to the original recipe of Giulio Cocchi. This vermouth falls into the category of sweet vermouth, or Italian vermouth, sweet and amber in color, present in the manuals of the late nineteenth century. Cocchi Storico Vermouth di Torino has been the protagonist of the international rebirth of high-end vermouths and of the renewed interest of great barmen in the Vermouth di Torino denomination to the point that in the United States it is commonly referred to as “Cocchi Torino”.

Giulio Cocchi's original recipe calls for the use of herbs such as cinchona and rhubarb which slightly tinge the beautiful clear wine brown. To accentuate the amber hue, brown sugar prepared over the fire is added as for crème caramel which, with the color, also gives a special note to the taste: crunchy and cotton candy able to round off all bitter tastes without using vanilla.

A vermouth that excites, full of sensations: among the flavoring herbs and spices, the protagonists are artemisia and citrus fruits which, with cinchona, give balanced bitter and citrus tones, which characterize Cocchi's style. The taste is therefore rich, with vibrant notes of cocoa and bitter orange. From the infusion of some noble and balsamic woods, slightly camphorated hints and notes of rosemary arrive in the finish. Among the minor ingredients there are herbs and woods with unique scents such as sandalwood, musk, myrrh, nutmeg.

Delicious pure, with ice and lemon zest, but indispensable as a base for the creation of the most classic cocktails, from the Negroni to the Manhattan." -Cocchi
