Cocchi Vermouth

An Italian house from Piedmont that has made vermouth since 1891. Behind the bottle is Giulio Cocchi, a confectioner who traded sugar for herbs and spices to create his own take on Torino-style vermouth. Today the name is synonymous with Cocchi Americano, a cocktail classic that has given bartenders worldwide access to a flavour many thought was lost along with the historic Kina Lillet.

About Cocchi

Cocchi is an Italian house from Asti in Piedmont, founded in 1891 and known for its classic vermouth and aperitif styles. For newcomers, Cocchi Americano is a natural way into the bittersweet world of vermouth and aperitifs, while connoisseurs appreciate that the house still works from its original laboratory and recipes barely changed in over 130 years - a rarity in an industry where most big names outsourced production long ago.

History & Background

Cocchi is an Italian wine house from Asti in Piedmont, founded in 1891 by Giulio Cocchi, a former confectioner who wanted to create a vermouth in the local, aromatic Torino style. The house is particularly known for Cocchi Americano, a quinine-flavored vermouth that has enjoyed a renaissance among bartenders as a substitute for the historic, now hard-to-find Kina Lillet. Cocchi still operates from its original laboratory in Asti and is produced to recipes largely unchanged since its founding.

Production & Style

The vermouth is infused with a secret blend of herbs and spices on a base of Moscato wine.

Signature Style

Spicy, Sweet, Herbal
The flavor offers a spicy, slightly sweet character with herbal notes.
