Sweet Italian Vermouth | 375ml | 16.5% ABV | Carpano, Turin, Italy
The 375ml half-bottle of Carpano Antica Formula is the smartest way to keep a premium sweet vermouth at home without watching it lose freshness. Vermouth is wine-based — it oxidizes once opened — so the smaller format means you finish the bottle while it still tastes the way it should.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Vanilla, dried fig, saffron, and bitter orange peel
- Palate: Caramel, raisin, baking spice, and gentian root bitterness
- Finish: Long and bittersweet, with cocoa and dried herbs
Use It In
- Negroni: 1 oz gin, 1 oz Campari, 1 oz Antica Formula — stirred, orange peel
- Manhattan: 2 oz rye, 1 oz Antica Formula, 2 dashes Angostura — stirred, cherry
- Boulevardier: Bourbon swap on the Negroni — deeper, richer
- Vermouth on the rocks: Just Antica, ice, orange twist
Why the 375ml Size
Vermouth is fortified wine, not spirit — once opened, it should be refrigerated and finished within four to six weeks for peak flavor. The 375ml format gives home bartenders the full Antica Formula experience without the half-finished, oxidized bottle that ruins the cocktail. It's also the right size to try Antica for the first time before committing to the 1L.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 375ml the same Antica Formula as the larger sizes?
Yes. Carpano Antica Formula 375ml is the identical recipe and bottling as the 750ml and 1L sizes — same Moscato base, same herbal infusion, same flavor profile. Only the volume changes.
How many cocktails can I make with a 375ml bottle?
A 375ml bottle yields about 25 cocktails at a 0.5 oz pour (Manhattan-style) or roughly 12 Negronis at the standard 1 oz pour. Plan refrigerator life accordingly — finish within 4–6 weeks of opening for best flavor.
Should I buy the 375ml or 750ml of Antica Formula?
If you make stirred cocktails weekly, the 750ml is more economical. If you make them occasionally — or you're trying Antica Formula for the first time — the 375ml ensures you finish the bottle while it's still fresh.
Stored properly, you'll get every classic stirred cocktail tasting the way it's supposed to. See the rest of our vermouth selection.
