Carpano's White Vermouth has a bit of sweetness, some citrus, cocoa beans, vanilla, and almond aromas for a complex drink with a slice of grapefruit or topped with Sparkling wine or club soda.
The ideal replacement for long-defunct Kina Lillet. Not only is this an exceptional apéritif (rocks, orange slice, perhaps a splash of soda), it's just the thing for a Vesper or the brilliant Corpse Reviver #2. But beware: in the words of cocktail legend Harry Craddock of the London Savoy, "Four of these taken in swift succession will unrevive the corpse again."
