Punt E Mes Vermouth, 75 cl

This is how Vermouth should be all the time. Punt E Mes is a lovely, attractive golden orange colour with a wonderfully fresh feel of fresh orange and exceptional balance between sweetness and bitterness. Whether you are looking to use in a cocktail or to drink in the more traditional ‘apretif’ way this will absolutely not let you down. The Carpano family behind Punt E Mes can trace both their family tree and the recipe for their infamous Vermouth as far back as 1786. The founder Antonio Benedetto Carpano owned a own wine shop which, rather fortuitously, stood opposite the Royal Palace. Once Antonio created his unique drink it was very quickly adopted by the wealthy and influential around Turin. Thanks to their influence word soon spread and a success story was born. Both bitter and sweet citrus flavours wonderfully balanced.
