Martini & Rossi's Riserva Speciale Bitter

Treat your friends to the verdant flavors of Italian bitter liqueur by sending a bottle of Martini & Rossi's Riserva Speciale Bitter.

For over 150 years, Martini & Rossi has made a name for themselves with their exquisite vermouth and sparkling wine expressions. Today, this quintessential Italian brand operates under the Bacardi umbrella producing even more innovative and flavorful expressions for the enjoyment of drinkers worldwide.

Among their most recent releases is a bitter liqueur expression along the lines of Campari and Aperol. Dubbed the Martini & Rossi's Riserva Speciale Bitter, the liqueur is crafted from an original recipe developed by founder Luigi Rossi all the way back from 1872 starting with a neutral spirit as a base which is then flavored by a proprietary blend of botanicals including Angostura, Saffron, and Columba. The liqueur is then reduced to 57 proof before being bottled.

On the nose, the clear, crimson red liqueur opens up with heady aromas of herbs, saffron, black pepper, citrus, and flowers, paving the way for a firm and bitter palate of candied orange peels, sassafras, menthol, and cola, culminating in a spicy and refreshing finish of citrus peels and hot pepper.

Rich and complex, the Martini & Rossi's Riserva Speciale Bitter is a versatile treat that is perfect for cocktails or on its own as a delicious aperitif making it a superb gift worthy of sharing. So send a bottle to friends and family today as a token of appreciation and let them enjoy its splendid flavors all the way to the last drop.
