The original. The benchmark. The vermouth that started it all.
The Blueprint for Sweet Vermouth
Carpano Antica is the OG, created in 1786 in Turin and launching a thousand Manhattans. It's rich, unapologetically opulent, and still without equal. The nose is pure indulgence: creamy vanilla bean, dried cherries, and cocoa. The palate is lush and velvety, with layers of toffee, fig, and bitter herbs unfolding in perfect harmony, all supported by the body of a real Piedmontese white wine.
Made from the original recipe, Antica Formula is infused with a secret blend of botanicals and anchored by three kinds of vanilla. It's the choice for bartenders who want their cocktails to sing.
How to Enjoy
The absolute gold standard for a Manhattan or a Negroni. Also exquisite served neat or on the rocks with an orange twist.
