Producer Description
Created in 1919 by the Barbieri brothers, Luigi and Silvio, in the liqueur company of their father, Aperol is an aperitivo made from seven years of experimentation.
In the immediate post-war period and in later years, Aperol became popular all over Italy, particularly with young adults gathered in cafes in Padua and traditional bars in Venice.
In the 50’s the famous recipe that made the Aperol Spritz cocktail so popular was born. This is also the period of “Il Carosello”, the first Aperol TV commercial.
