Carefully rebalanced by Alberto Foletto, a fourth-generation pharmacist, it brings together tradition, botanical complexity, and a uniquely regional identity in every bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep and inviting in the glass, Foletto Bitter 1850 shows the kind of dark herbal intensity you’d expect from a classic alpine bitter. On the nose, it opens with layered notes of roots, bark, dried herbs, spice, and a subtle forest-like freshness, with the Trentino larch bark adding a particularly distinctive character.\n\nThe palate is structured and aromatic, balancing bitter herbs, earthy botanicals, and a gentle medicinal complexity with a long, dry finish. Its profile is assertive yet elegant, making it ideal for sipping neat or in refined bitter-based cocktails. With its concentrated botanical depth, it should hold its character well over time once opened, though it is best enjoyed while the aromas are still vibrant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced in Trentino-Alto Adige using artisanal methods, Foletto Bitter 1850 is made from 26 botanical ingredients infused according to a historic formula dating back to 1850. The original recipe was rediscovered by chance in the Foletto family archive, then refined by Alberto Foletto through a careful rebalancing of the herbal elements and a longer infusion period to maximize aromatic expression. The result is a bitter that reflects both the Alpine terroir and the family’s pharmaceutical heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy Foletto Bitter 1850 chilled or over ice as an aperitif, or use it to add depth to classic cocktails.
