Created by the Barbieri's brothers in 1919, Aperol became popular all over Italy, particularly due to its low alcohol strength at 11%. Aperol, with the acquisition by Gruppo Campari in 2003, continues to achieve resounding success in Italy and around the world. A bright orange colour, Aperol has a bitter-sweet taste, given by its recipe that remained unchanged until today. Infused with selected ingredients including oranges, herbs and roots in perfect proportions, Aperol is also commonly served as the popular Spritz cocktail!
