Fusetti Bitter 25% Vol. 1l

Fusetti Bitter is an Italian bitter aperitif that combines a classic herbal recipe with a modern, versatile style. Gentian, rhubarb, and cinchona bark form the aromatic heart of the blend, giving the bitter its complex herbal foundation. Quassia plays a special role—a plant known for its pronounced bitterness that is largely responsible for Fusetti’s characteristic tart flavor. Bitter orange and chinotto provide a balancing tart-fruity accent. This deliberate interplay creates a harmonious blend of bitter, floral, fruity, and citrusy components, in which the distinctive bitter note always takes center stage.

With an alcohol content of 25% and a generous 1-liter bottle, Fusetti Bitter was developed specifically with versatile use in the bar in mind. Its distinctly pronounced flavor profile makes it an interesting base for traditional Italian aperitif classics as well as for modern cocktail creations. Behind Fusetti is Vita S.r.l. from Cassinetta di Lugagnano near Milan. Whether for a Negroni, Americano, custom signature drinks, or simply enjoying it over ice, the recipe is intentionally designed to be versatile. The combination of gentian, rhubarb, cinchona bark, quassia, bitter orange, and chinotto gives Fusetti a distinctive character and makes it a modern alternative within the Italian bitter category.
