Punt E Mes Aperitivo Originale is a traditional Italian aperitif with an alcohol content of 16% vol. and a bottle size of 0.75 litres. This unique aperitif was originally created in 1870 in Antonio Carpano's bar in Turin and has had a remarkable history ever since. The curious origin story begins when a banker ordered a special aperitif during his lunch break. In his hectic working environment, he spontaneously called out "un punt e Mes", which means "one and a half stock exchange points" in Piedmontese. As this individually created aperitif tasted so good, a new brand was born, which is now considered a classic among Italian aperitifs.

Today, Punt E Mes is made with a blend of the best Italian wines and 50 different herbs and spices, which gives it its distinctive and balanced bitterness. The aperitif is characterised by its complex aromas that combine both sweet and bitter notes. Punt E Mes is an ideal companion for aperitifs, but can also be used as a base for various cocktails.
