APEROL APERITIVO ITALIAN SPRITZ 70CL

Padua in 1919 is where this bright orange aperitivo first appeared, built around a still-secret blend of bitter orange, rhubarb, gentian and cinchona bark that's remained largely unchanged for over a century. Its low 11% ABV was considered revolutionary at launch, allowing it to be poured from brunch through to evening without the heaviness of a full-strength spirit, and it remains best known today as the essential base of the classic Aperol Spritz.
