Description
Don Ciccio Cinque Aperitivo Bianco is a Washington, DC bitter aperitivo based on a regional Italian recipe dating to 1929. Built from 12 selected roots and herbs, it highlights bitter orange and gentian lutea with a clean, pale, citrus-forward profile. Bottled at 15% ABV, it is especially useful in spritzes, White Negronis, Americanos, and lighter bitter cocktails.
Producer
Don Ciccio & Figli was revived in Washington, DC by Francesco Amodeo, whose family liqueur tradition began on the Amalfi Coast in 1883. The brand describes itself as born in Italy and reborn in the USA, producing Italian-style amari, aperitivi, and cordials from its Ivy City distillery. Cinque reflects that approach by adapting an older family-style aperitivo recipe for modern cocktail use.
Cocktail Suggestions
Don Ciccio Cinque Aperitivo Bianco is a strong fit for a White Negroni with gin and blanc vermouth. Its bitter orange and gentian notes give the drink a drier, brighter edge than many sweeter bianco aperitivi, while the gin keeps the cocktail crisp and structured.
It also works well in an Americano Bianco with bianco vermouth and soda water. The soda lifts Cinque’s citrus and herbal bitterness, creating a lower-ABV aperitivo that feels refreshing, clean, and easy to serve before dinner.
