Inspired by his family’s legacy of producing artisanal Italian cordials, Matteo Meletti has developed a traditional bitter aperitivo called 1870.

Named after the year in which the distillery was founded in Ascoli Piceno, 1870 pays homage to the distillery’s storied past. The resurgence of traditional spirits in craft cocktails has led to an increase in demand, so fifth generation, Matteo, turned to the family’s archives and reinvented an old recipe for modern day.

1870 keeps with the family’s tradition of using the finest, natural ingredients. Sweet and bitter orange and an infusion of herbs and spices are blended with pure spirits to create a pleasantly bitter, yet refreshing aperitivo. The flavor profile is impressively complex starting with sweet citrus, moving through a bitter midpalate, and finishing with gentian, coriander, cinnamon, and clove notes.
