'Punt e Mes'
Red Vermouth, Piedmont, Italy
A perfect red vermouth for your negronis, as an aperitif, or mixed into a special cocktail of your own making. âPunt e Mesâ translates to a point and a half in regional Piemontese dialect - so the story goes, this intriguing sipper was named after a regular at the Carpano wine shop came in to talk share prices and asked the barkeep to add âhalf a pointâ sweetness to his regular pre-lunch vermouth. Soon after the concoction, with over 40 herbs and spices, became wildly popular. Distinctly herbal, cola-esque, bitter orange and baking spices, uniquely Italian.
