Italian amari, vermouths, and aperitivo wines have a history spanning back centuries. But these drinks styles are also living categories, continuing to expand in today’s cocktail culture. For this episode, we talk withGiuseppe Gallo (IG: @peppegallo1) about the continuing influence of these Italian drinks, and about his contributions to the category: Italicus Rosolio di Bergamotto, Savoia Rosso Americano, and Savoia Orancio, the latter of which took a top award at this year’s New Orleans Spirits Competition.
