What it brings to the back bar.
ZANIN 1895 Aperitivo has an intense orange appearance and an enveloping scent of fresh citrus, with hints of aromatic herbs, roots and spices. The ingredient base includes sweet and bitter orange peels, Roman wormwood, cinchona bark, rhubarb rhizomes and gentian.
The taste is slightly bitter, well balanced by citrusy sweetness. Herbal, citrus and spicy notes work together, finishing clean and delicate with moderate persistence of citrus and herbs.
The product fits the Zanin 1895 philosophy of taking historic liqueur recipes and reinterpreting them for modern tastes while preserving the authenticity of the house origins. It gives the UK trade an Italian aperitivo with a direct spritz role.
