Genziana Liqueur 700ml with Italian Gentian
Six years after the founding of Antica Torino and the first production of Vermouth di Torino Rosso, Vittorio and Filippo have decided to produce two of the most important alpine liqueurs in the Piedmont region: Genepì and Genziana.
Enjoy the traditional Genziana liqueur now
Genziana belongs to the family of gentian plants that thrive in the Alps and Apennines of Italy at an altitude of over three thousand feet. Gentian root is known for its unique bitterness and refreshing quality, making it an indispensable ingredient in traditional liqueurs for centuries. However, the classic Italian liqueur Genziana perhaps best embodies the true character of gentian. Antica Torino Genziana is characterized by a citrus and herbal bitterness that lingers elegantly and powerfully on the palate.
Enjoy with soda or tonic, or add a quarter ounce to your favorite whiskey and gin cocktails for a twist.

Vittorio Zoppi and Filippo Antonelli are the driving forces behind Antica Torino Vermouth, a product deeply rooted in their personal stories and the rich tradition of Italian winemaking.
Vittorio Zoppi found his inspiration in the memories of his grandmother Iole, with whom he spent many summers. As a child, he secretly tasted her vermouth, a drink she particularly enjoyed. Those early experiences stayed with him until 2014, when a liquor store owner in San Francisco, California, asked him about vermouth. Vittorio then began an intensive phase of study and research, which led to the bottling of Antica Torino Vermouth two years later. Previously, Vittorio worked for twenty years building and managing distribution networks in North America for wine and liquor producers.
Filippo Antonelli, who joined the project a few months after Vittorio, brings with him his own deep connection to the history and culture of vermouth. As a child, he spent his late summers with his grandmother Elena in Colleretto Giacosa, in the Canavese area of Piedmont. There he developed a preference for vermouth, inspired by his evenings with the chef Giovanni. Filippo, whose mother comes from Canavese, is also strongly linked to Piedmont through his great-grandfather Giuseppe Giacosa, Puccini's librettist. He manages wine production in the family businesses Antonelli San Marco in Umbria and Castello di Torre in Pietra near Rome and exports these world-famous quality wines internationally.
Together, Vittorio Zoppi and Filippo Antonelli combine their deep knowledge and passion for wine to create Antica Torino Vermouth - a drink that carries the essence of their family heritage and the excellence of Italian viticulture.
