Success was immediate, the excellence of his product earned him requests from various important places in the city, so much so that even today the historic café in Turin, Caffè Mulassano, one of the oldest in Italy, has its Vermouth produced. with the exclusive Bordiga recipe.


The philosophy and quality of the products that animated the founder remained unchanged; it continued to produce always starting from selected and quality raw materials. Characteristics that remain today: the good Piedmontese wine, the alpine officinal herbs still hand-picked by the mountaineers, the finest spices, the purest grain alcohol, the most refined sugar and the water of our Alps constitute, today the basis with which our master distillers, with their ancestral and jealously guarded wisdom, produce the renowned Bordiga products today appreciated all over the world.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
