Leopold Aperitivo (750ml)

When the initial iteration of the Leopold Bros Aperitivo launched back in 2015, it was the first American expression of its kind since Prohibition. Since that day, numerous distillers have followed suit and the category has exploded, but our Aperitivo Classico has remained true to its natural origins.

The Aperitivo Classico begins with two individual distillations of grapefruit peel and coriander, which are then blended together. Water is added at that point  to ensure that the cochineal coloring remains vibrant during the steeping. From there, we steep petite  wormwood, genepi, and gentian root with the spirit and a small amount of liquified cane sugar is added before bottling.

Ingredients: Grapefruit peel, coriander, petite wormwood, genepi, gentian root, cochineal
Production: Grapefruit and coriander are distilled separately, then married & steeped with the remaining botanicals.
