Cocchi Americano Aperitivo

Once impossible to find in the U.S., this aromatized wine has hit a peak of popularity here given the craft cocktail craze of the past ten years. Similar in style to Lillet or Vermouth, this has a foundation of white wine that is aromatized with an infusion of extracts taken from herbs macerated in neutral alcohol. The most important to note of these extracts include that of Gentian flowers and leaves, Cinchona bark, elderflower and bitter orange peel, among others. What ends up in your glass is round, floral, herbaceous and very subtly and delicately sweet, drinking somewhat similarly to a blanc vermouth, but with just a touch more bitterness. This can turn club soda into an exciting afternoon treat, or elevate and enhance a broad range of cocktails. Try it first over a few ice cubes to really open it up and see all that it has to offer. *Spirits available for in-store pickup & local delivery. For NY state shipping, call the shop directly.
