Cocchi vermouth and aperitivo tasting with the Botanical Library

Giulio Cocchi was a Florentine pastry cook who set up in Asti in 1891 and made his name with vermouth, Barolo Chinato and the Americano aperitivo. Since 1978 the house has belonged to the Bava family, and this tasting takes place at their cellars in Cocconato. You walk through the cellar and the Botanical Library, the collection behind the recipes, then taste four Cocchi vermouths and aromatised wines, with some time on how bartenders mix them. It takes about an hour and a half. Request a date through the Bava booking form and pick "Cocchi, Vermouths and Aperitivi".
