Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry is a Vermouth from the Cocchi Liqueur brand hailing from Italy.

What is Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry?

Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry is a beautifully crisp and aromatic vermouth that showcases the best of Piedmontese winemaking traditions. This elegant aperitif is crafted using a blend of local Piedmont wines and a secret mix of botanicals, including wormwood, citrus, and alpine herbs, resulting in a perfectly balanced and refreshing drink. Interestingly, Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry is one of the few vermouths that can claim the prestigious "Vermouth di Torino" geographical indication, a protected designation that requires the vermouth to be produced in Piedmont using at least 50% local wines and following strict quality standards.

Why do we love Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry?

Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry stands out for its use of locally-grown Moscato wine as its base, lending a delicate floral character that sets it apart from other vermouths. Its unique blend of botanicals includes wormwood, citrus peel, and a touch of mint, creating a crisp, herbaceous profile that shines in classic cocktails like Martinis and Negronis while offering enough complexity to be enjoyed on its own over ice.

How do you drink Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry?

Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry shines in classic gin-based cocktails, but it's equally delightful sipped neat or over ice with a twist of lemon. This crisp, herbaceous vermouth is perfect for warm summer evenings, pairing beautifully with light appetizers like olives, nuts, or seafood dishes that complement its delicate botanical flavors.

Nose: Fresh and clean with prominent notes of lemon peel and white flowers. Hints of chamomile, sage, and coriander add herbal depth. A subtle waft of vanilla and almond provides warmth.

Palate: Crisp and dry with a light body. Citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit dominate, balanced by gentle bitterness from wormwood. Herbal flavors of thyme and marjoram emerge, alongside a touch of white pepper spice. A faint sweetness reminiscent of green apple lingers in the background.

Finish: Long and refreshing. The herbs become more pronounced, particularly artemisia and gentian root. A pleasant dryness coats the mouth, with lingering notes of lemon zest and a subtle mineral quality reminiscent of chalk or limestone.

Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry is crafted using a base of high-quality Moscato wines from Piedmont, which are then infused with a proprietary blend of botanicals including wormwood, citrus peels, and alpine herbs. What's particularly interesting is that Cocchi uses a unique "cold infusion" process, where the botanicals are macerated in the wine at low temperatures, allowing for a more delicate extraction of flavors and aromas without the harshness sometimes associated with traditional hot infusion methods.

  • Cocchi Vermouth di Torino Extra Dry contains a secret ingredient: Artemisia absinthium, the same herb used to make absinthe. This gives the vermouth a subtle, complex bitterness that sets it apart from other dry vermouths.
  • Unlike most vermouths that use neutral grape spirits, Cocchi uses a base of Cortese wine from Piemonte. This regional white wine adds a unique floral character and helps preserve the vermouth's delicate aromas.
  • The bottle's distinctive blue and white label is a nod to the colors of the House of Savoy, the royal family that ruled the Kingdom of Sardinia (which included Torino) when Cocchi was founded in 1891.
  • Main Ingredient: Grape
