Carpano's Antica Formula, from the original recipe developed by Antonio Benedetto Carpano in 1786, is a sweet vermouth of the highest quality. This distinctive and powerful aromatized wine should be considered a standard component in any respectable bar. It can be served chilled as an aperitivo, a digestivo or a welcome addition to your favorite cocktail. \n \n Distillery Information \n The story starts in Turin in 1786 when Antonio Benedetto Carpano, following a period in which he studied to be a herbalist, invented the formula which was to give rise to the category of Vermouth products, by combining herbs and spices with muscatel. Carpano’s wine shop was situated just opposite the Royal Palace and, confident of the appeal of his new product, he sent a crate of Vermouth to King Vittorio Amedeo III. The king took such an immediate liking to the drink and he adopted it as one of the royal household. Today, the product is as loved in Italy as it is in other countries, where the trend in consumption is continually increasing. Carpano is expanding the reference market of the original vermouth for good, thanks to the work being done by Distillerie Branca who are taking its undeniable quality around the world. An example of this is the House of Carpano’s newest product – Vermouth Dry. This vermouth completes the product range, keeping in line with the Carpano tradition but with the innovation of Distillerie Branca, to produce an exclusive dry vermouth with an unmistakable taste.
