This information-packed companion is a guide to over 50 aperitifs, from household names to lesser-known, interesting brands. It includes the history of aperitifs, details of the production process and tasting notes and tips on how to serve different styles of aperitifs. Divided into a 'branded directory' and a 'generic directory', The Aperitif Companion covers a vast selection of drinks from brands that have given their name to a drink - Campari and Cinzano, Pernod and Riccadonna - to those that are known by their general names - such as sherry, madeira and port.
