THE BOOK OF VERMOUTH DI TORINO, 2024, 149 pp.

VERMOUTH DI TORINO by Fulvio Piccinino is a very good English translation of the Italian original which sets out everything that there is to know about Vermouth, especially the one made in Piemonte called “di Torino.” Originally published in 2015, this second edition of June, 2024, is a last word on vermouth, now very much on drinkers’ minds and palates. Its subtitle: “The history and production of the world’s most famous aromatised wine,”
sets the stage for a charming and illustrative read. Its “time line” is impressive.

Vermouth and its entry into the cocktail world is well described. As are the “polibibite” of the Futurists. The author is author of the Mixology work above. Everything notable and some things not so notable about Vermouth are described in this one of a kind work. The collection of graphic art alone from generations of Italian artists used as publicity material for Vermouth is worth the price of this work. All of the producers of the consortium of Vermouth di Torino are described with their histories. It is a fundamental work on a delicious product, now returning to the fore. 

This is a book that should be in everyone’s library.
