Bordiga Vermouth di Torino Bianco is a premium Italian vermouth crafted from an ancient original recipe, using high-quality ingredients such as Piedmontese wines and natural infusions. It features an intense yellow color with amber notes, a vinous aroma with floral and spicy hints, and a well-balanced taste that starts with the sweetness of Moscato and evolves into a pleasant bitterness.
Made with Alpine botanicals like wormwood, marjoram, mint, and Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, alongside wines such as Moscato Secco and Trebbiano, this vermouth undergoes a meticulous production process spanning over 40-50 days before bottling, with an additional resting period in cellars at a constant 15°C.
Distilleria Bordiga is an Italian artisanal distillery founded in 1888 by Pietro Bordiga, a master herbalist and pioneer in crafting spirits and liqueurs. Located in Cuneo, Piedmont, at the foothills of the Alps, Bordiga has remained synonymous with quality, tradition, and innovation for over a century.
The distillery's products are crafted using hand-picked Alpine herbs, roots, and flowers, as well as premium wines from the Piedmont region, such as Barolo and Barbaresco. These ingredients, combined with time-honored recipes and traditional methods, ensure that every bottle reflects the rich heritage and unique flavors of the region.
Bordiga continues to use copper pot stills heated by wood fires, preserving the artisanal techniques passed down through generations. The production process avoids artificial additives, centrifuges, or synthetic flavors, maintaining the authenticity and purity of the ingredients.
