Bordiga Aperitivo

Vibrant. Bitter-sweet. Authentically Italian.
Bordiga Aperitivo is Italy in a glass — bright, aromatic, and irresistibly inviting. Crafted by the legendary Bordiga 1888 Distillery in Cuneo, Piedmont, this artisanal aperitif celebrates the essence of the Italian aperitivo hour, that magical time of day when conversations flow, glasses clink, and life slows down just enough to savour the moment.

Made from a blend of carefully selected herbs, roots, citrus peels, and spices, Bordiga Aperitivo is infused with the natural vibrancy of its alpine surroundings. Its striking ruby hue and perfectly balanced profile — lightly bitter, refreshingly citrusy, and elegantly herbal — make it the perfect companion for pre-dinner drinks or creative cocktails.

In Ireland, where aperitivo culture is becoming ever more loved, Bordiga Aperitivo brings an authentic Italian touch to gatherings. Whether you’re mixing a Spritz at home or pouring it over ice with soda, it delivers the sunshine and sophistication of Northern Italy straight to your glass.

Why we love it:
We love Bordiga Aperitivo for its natural ingredients, refined balance, and genuine Italian flair. Unlike industrial aperitifs, Bordiga’s version is handcrafted using traditional recipes and alpine botanicals, offering a depth of flavour that’s both refreshing and nuanced. It’s the perfect way to bring a slice of Italian lifestyle into Irish homes and bars alike.
