Fratelli Branca Distillerie Antica Formula Vermouth di Giuseppe B. Carpano NV (375ml)

$16

Carpano Antica Formula is the king of red vermouth. Vermouth, an 'aromatized wine' that's flavored with a variety of botanicals such as wormwood, chamomile, orange peel, rose petals, calamus root, elderflowers and gentian. This unique style is very well received by cocktail fanciers. Carpano, founded in Turin, Italy, by Antonio Benedetto Carpano, is said to have issued the very first commercial brand of sweet vermouth in 1786, and the recipe for this new bottling is reportedly based on an 'ancient formula.' This is a forthright vermouth, but not overpoweringly so. It offers a very complex palate, and there's a hint of vanilla that's seldom found in other vermouth bottlings.

Greatest sweet vermouth by such a huge margin that it's almost embarrassing.

Hands down the best sweet vermouth. Do a side by side comparison with any major brand. Youll be amazed. Just poured it neat. Tasted. Then added Campari ( now i have the americano). Retasted. Yum. . Then added gin for a negroni. Delicious. Well worth the cost.

I've never experienced the luscious "herbiness" of a vermouth like this. Absolutely gorgeous. We bought it to make Manhattans, for which it is the secret sauce. But I'm planning to drink it on its own and serve as an aperitif.
