Mulassano Italian Bitter Liqueur- 750ml

Description

Mulassano Italian Bitter Liqueur is a classic Turin-style bitter aperitivo with a firm herbal backbone, balanced sweetness, and bright red bitter-orange character. Developed from a historic recipe in the Bordiga distillery archives, it was reformulated with lower sugar and 25% ABV for better structure in cocktails. It is a strong choice for Negronis, Americanos, and Milano-Torino style drinks.

Producer

Mulassano is tied to Caffè Mulassano, the historic Turin café located in Piazza Castello. The Mulassano family’s liqueur-making roots go back to the late 19th century, and the modern range includes vermouths, bitter, aperitivo, and Barolo Chinato. The bitter is produced by Bordiga, the Piedmontese distillery founded in 1888 near the Alps in Cuneo.

Cocktail Suggestions

Mulassano Italian Bitter Liqueur is a natural fit for a Negroni with gin and sweet vermouth. Its higher proof and reduced sugar help the cocktail stay structured, while the bitter orange and herbal notes bring the familiar Italian aperitivo profile customers expect from a red bitter.

It also works well in a Milano-Torino with sweet vermouth over ice. Mulassano’s bitterness cuts through the vermouth’s sweetness, creating a lower-ABV aperitivo that feels rich, herbal, and easy to serve before dinner.
