Aperol

Aperol is an iconic Italian aperitif, created by the Barbieri brothers in 1919 in Padua. Its name comes from the French word “apéro,” referring to the enjoyment of light aperitifs before a meal. Its aroma is sweet and citrusy, featuring a harmonious blend of bitter orange, rhubarb, and spices. The flavor is fresh and mildly bitter, balanced by orange, vanilla, and herbal notes. Its most famous cocktail is the Aperol Spritz, made with prosecco, Aperol, and soda, and it has become one of the world’s most popular summer drinks. Light, refreshing, and elegant, it’s the perfect choice for those who enjoy a mildly bitter, citrus-forward taste.
