Anselmo Bitter Italiano - 700 ml
Anselmo Bitter Italiano originates from the Piedmont region of Italy, specifically the city of Turin. It is produced by Anselmo Torino, a historic brand with roots dating back to 1854 when Carlo Anselmo first began experimenting with aromatic herbs and Muscat wine. The company remains dedicated to the recovery of ancient family recipes while maintaining the traditional craftsmanship of the 'Piemontese' liqueur heritage.
Description
This spirit is a contemporary interpretation of the classic 'Bitter di Milano' style, featuring a vibrant, clear ruby red appearance. The aroma is a sophisticated combination of herbal, citrus, and spice infusions, with prominent notes of gentian root and aromatic orange peel. On the palate, it is medium bodied and well balanced, offering a complex interplay of sweet and bitter flavours, including hints of rhubarb, cinchona bark, and a subtle floral undertone. The finish is long and refreshing, marked by a lingering bitterness and a touch of zesty citrus. It is bottled at 25% ABV.
Accolades
Anselmo Torino's portfolio is highly regarded for its balance and complexity, continuing a legacy that has been celebrated since the late 19th century. While specific recent competition medals for the 'Bitter Italiano' expression are frequently grouped with the brand's award winning vermouths, the distillery is recognized globally for its 'Historic Recipe' series, which honours over 100 years of authentic Italian liqueur production.
Food Pairing
The intense herbal and bitter profile of this spirit makes it an ideal accompaniment for salty and umami rich appetizers. It pairs exceptionally well with classic Italian antipasti, such as green Castelvetrano olives, aged Pecorino cheese, and thin slices of prosciutto di Parma. For a more substantial pairing, it complements spicy tomato based pasta dishes or grilled seafood seasoned with lemon and mediterranean herbs, where the bitterness helps to cut through richness and heat.
