Primo Aperitivo

A wonderfully aromatic and distinctive aperitivo with vivid aromas of pink grapefruit, blood orange and hibiscus alongside rose petals, orange blossom and fresh rosemary. Fascinating layers of cardamom, cinnamon and Earl Grey emerge with air, followed by hints of cacao, spearmint and dried guajillo chile. Medium-bodied with a silky, gently sweet entry showing juicy citrus and agave before the bitterness begins to build. Grapefruit peel, rhubarb and gentian provide excellent tension, while rosemary, lemon verbena and mint bring freshness through the middle. There’s an intriguing savory-spicy quality underneath, with guajillo, allspice and cacao adding complexity without becoming overtly hot or chocolatey. Finishes long, bittersweet and wonderfully aromatic, with grapefruit zest, gentian, hibiscus, tea and lingering spice. Original, sophisticated and unmistakably Mexican. An aperitivo with a genuine sense of place rather than an imitation of an Italian original.
