Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth Rosso, 37.5cl, 16.5% ABV, Italian Red Vermouth, White Wines from Italy with Premium Botanicals, Ideal for Negroni Sbagliato, Original Recipe, Gift Idea

Pure, raw, and unapologetically 'wild.' There’s a vibrant, herbaceous energy here that reminds me of mountain air and crushed herbs. It tastes less like a manufactured product and more like a direct snapshot of the vineyard’s soil and sunlight. I love every drop as I love life itself.

I bought this as I wanted a better quality sweet Vermouth than say Martini Rossa to see if it made a difference when used as a mixer in cocktails. Initially I bulked at the cost but then realised it was a litre bottle. I’m so glad I made the leap and I’m just about to order another bottle. Whether you have it neat with some ice or soda or as a mixer this a really great vermouth. It lifts a cocktail and my favourite is a Negroni which it adds a whole new dimension to. It has hints of cherry and still retains a floral presence in what ever the drink.

I'm a bit partial to a Negroni every now and then, but was never satisfied with the home made ones over those you get in a decent bar. Until, I found this! This vermouth is so much smoother than the other brand I was using and although it's more expensive, it is definitely worth it. It comes in a half bottle size which is also convenient for me as it means I'm not having a full size bottle opened for so long as it doesn't last forever once opened.

I like a red vermouth. In a Negroni, where it is hidden behind the flavours of the gin and Campari, a cheaper generic vermouth is more than adequate.However, I am also rather partial to a Manhattan. Which consists of a Rye whisky and vermouth. Here the taste of the vermouth is more prominent and important.On those occasions I treat myself to a more luxurious offering. This Carpano Antica is such a vermouth. It has a more complex array of flavours that for me, complement the whisky Beautifully.Yes, it is considerably more expensive, (but it is a litre bottle). But, for me it is worth the extra for that special cocktail.I don't have it often, but it's always a treat, and I would happily buy again when I run out.I hope you found this review helpful.

This is a lovely vermouth, just right for my Negronis

When making cocktails. This is a very good Vermouth.It is a quality product which I constantly order and use

I make Negronis that people rave about as the best they've ever had, and Antica Formula is my secret weapon. Campari is Campari, and there are plenty of great gins, but there is no sweet vermouth as good as this. It is so rich, smooth and delicious. it lifts a Negroni to a quality level above the rest. Not cheap, but worth it.

This vermouth is smooth and complex and is by far the best we have tried so far. Perfect for cocktails and adding in to sauces and gravy.

Perfetto, peccato il driver maleducato e poco rispettoso

Realmente lo que esperaba, un delicioso saborCon predominio de sabores herbales

Excellent Vermuth, un peu sucré à mon goût

Rich and warming... citrous, delicate spice notes, lovely colour... for my Negroni... makes the "common" vermouth Rosso taste like transparent tasteless sweet cordial!

ネグローニはお好きですか？最高のカクテルを作るには欠かせないもので、他の追随を許さない。確かに少々高価だが、1/3の量で長持ちし、カクテルに深みと風味を与えてくれる。Antics Formulaを使ったネグローニを一度飲んだら、安いものでは満足できなくなるだろう。
