Name:
Amaro Della Sacra Antica Torino
Cellar
The AnticaTorino company was founded by Vittorio Zoppi and Filippo Antonelli to offer flavoured wines, liqueurs and traditional Piedmontese spirits, creating new recipes inspired by traditional ones.
The first product is a Vermouth di Torino Rosso, which has always been a symbol of the city's excellence and lifestyle.
It is the result of a long process of research and study of the liquor history of the Piedmont region, of numerous meetings with producers, ex-producers, journalists, trade operators, enthusiasts and collectors, aimed at reconstructing a historical path on which to base the ANTICA TORINO project.
The creation of our recipes derives from constant work at the liqueur factory and continuous experiments and tastings, with the aim of creating an organoleptic masterpiece: a vermouth unique to the sight, smell and palate.
Description
The ingredients of the amaro della sacra are natural, some typical of the Piedmont region such as gentian and hop flowers, others exotic ones brought to Europe following explorations of new lands such as cardamom from the Indies, vanilla from Madagascar, cinchona from South America and others. The uniqueness of the recipe, the quantity of the botanicals and the alcohol content make the sacra bitter an important liqueur bitter for meditation and a versatile ingredient for mixology.
