Cocchi Vermouth di Torino
The Cocchi Vermouth di Torino is an authentic Piedmontese vermouth that bridges elegance and complexity, Cocchi Vermouth di Torino delivers a bittersweet harmony of citrus peel, cocoa, dried fruits, and warm spice. Smooth yet layered, it’s versatile enough to enjoy on its own or as the backbone of classic cocktails.
Origins & Craftsmanship
Produced in Asti since 1891, Cocchi is among the few houses still crafting vermouth to the protected Vermouth di Torino designation. The recipe begins with a base of local Moscato and other Piedmontese wines, infused with a proprietary blend of herbs and spices including wormwood, cocoa, citrus, and rhubarb. This traditional approach preserves the heritage of Turin-style vermouth while offering a richer, more artisanal profile than many commercial counterparts.
Tasting Profile
Aroma & Flavor: Bitter orange, dried cherry, cocoa nib, alpine herbs, and warm spice create a fragrant, layered nose and palate.
Sweetness & Balance: Medium-bodied with a bittersweet core; sweetness is balanced by spice and citrus lift, leading to a lingering, slightly earthy finish.
Texture: Velvety and mouth-coating, with a refined balance that makes it equally enjoyable neat or mixed.

-
