Giulio Cocchi S.r.l.

Orange peel and bitter orange peel ride sweet, perfumed Moscato, then a clean, firmly bitter snap lingers. A light elderflower note drifts up, more blossom than perfume. Bitter orange peel brings the bitter orange peel, and a touch of elderflower keeps the aroma lively without turning sweet. That lift comes from a Moscato base, while gentian and cinchona add the tonic bite and pull the finish dry.

It walks a fine line between sweet and bitter, so it brightens mixed drinks and is easy to sip cold. At 16.5% it has enough body for cocktails yet stays refreshing. A touch of wormwood keeps the edges herbal and crisp. The bottle for the hour before dinner when you want a bright, bracing start.
