Martini Riserva Speciale Bitter

Martini Riserva Speciale Bitter is a premium Italian aperitif from Martini & Rossi, which follows the brand's historical recipe from 1872. This distinctive herbal liqueur was created as a modern interpretation of classic Italian aperitifs and is primarily intended for cocktail culture and lovers of complex bitter-herbal flavors.

Its production uses carefully selected herbs, spices, and botanical ingredients that create a rich and aromatic profile. The recipe includes saffron, angostura, and Italian Artemisia, which give the drink its characteristic bitterness and complexity. The result is an aperitif with a harmonious balance between bitterness, spiciness, and subtle sweetness.

Martini Riserva Speciale Bitter is designed to perfectly complement classic cocktails. It is especially well-suited for drinks like Negroni or Americano, where it is often combined with Bombay Sapphire gin and Martini Riserva Speciale Vermouth di Torino, creating the typical flavor profile of iconic Italian aperitifs.

The aroma features intense herbal and spicy notes, complemented by a subtle citrus freshness. The taste is gently bitter, complex, and aromatic, with notes of herbs, spices, and citrus peel. The drink has an elegant and balanced structure typical of high-quality Italian bitter aperitifs.

Martini Riserva Speciale Bitter is ideal as a base for cocktails, but also served over ice with citrus peel.
