Cocchi Americano Rosa

This may sound crazy, but I find the contents of this bottle to be comforting. There's something about Cocchi Americano Rosa that's almost nostalgic.It smells like walking into my dad's barber shop when I was a kid. The smell of aftershave when I had to hug a lot of relatives at holiday reunion. Gentian, chinchona, citrus and rose create a harmony of aromas that carry over to the palate. There's depth counterbalanced by brightness, just the right amount of lift from fruit and floral components supported by the warmth of saffron and vanilla and a playful yet refreshing bitterness that ties all of the elements together. Yes, you can sub this in for most cocktails that call for an aperitivo in the ingredients. No, you won't be disappointed.
