Campari is a contemporary and
charismatic classic. The secret recipe, which has remained unchanged,
originated in Novara in 1860 and is the base for some of the most famous
cocktails around the world. Campari is an alcoholic spirit obtained from the
infusion of bitter herbs, aromatic plants and fruit in alcohol and water. With
its vibrant red colour, intense aroma and inspiring flavour, Campari has always
been a symbol of intrigue and pleasure, which unfurls itself into a captivating
drinking experience. These are the values that have made the Campari brand
famous throughout the world as an icon of passionate Italian style and
excellence.
