Silvio Carta Bitteroma Rosso is crafted by the renowned Silvio Carta distillery of Sardinia—established in the early 1950s in Baratili San Pietro, originally famed for its Vernaccia di Oristano wines, and later expanding into bitters, liqueurs, gins, and vermouth using native botanicals. This vibrant red bitter (25.3% ABV) is a modern yet terroir-driven expression of Mediterranean "herbaceous amaro," embodying the rugged scents of the Sardinian maquis.
On the nose, it offers an intense bouquet of rosemary, thyme, sage, santolina, eucalyptus, alongside citrus peel, tamarind, and clove notes. The palate is dry yet enveloping, with a resolute bitter edge and a long, refreshing citrus-peel finish, making it equally compelling neat over ice or as a bold mixer in cocktails like a Negroni or Americano
