Pircher Alpitz Aperitivo Alpino

Pircher Alpitz Aperitivo Alpino is an Alpine aperitif liqueur from the Pircher distillery in South Tyrol, northern Italy. It brings together a balanced blend of Alpine herbs and citrus fruits with a subtle bitterness, working in the modern aperitivo style at a low 15% by volume in a 70cl bottle, built for a refreshing yet layered drink before a meal.

The nose offers inviting citrus of lemon and orange underpinned by a subtle herbal note and a fine bitterness, the palate refreshing and balanced with citrus, herbs and a pleasantly mild bitterness, closing long and smooth with forest herbs and a light citrus note. In a drink it adds citrus lift, an herbal layer and a gentle bitter backbone that keeps a serve from turning sweet, exactly what an aperitivo asks of it. It pours well neat or over ice before a festive dinner and makes a clean base for a bright, herbal Alpine spritz.
