Cocchi Dopo Teatro Vermouth Amaro

Dopo Teatro translates to "after theater," a nod to the old Turin tradition of stopping for a small glass of chilled vermouth with a twist of lemon on the way home from a show. Cocchi builds this one from a base of their own Vermouth di Torino, then pushes it further into bitter territory with extra cinchona bark (a double infusion) and the addition of chiretta, a notably bitter herb, alongside wormwood, rhubarb, and quassia wood. The result sits somewhere between standard di Torino and the more assertive Punt e Mes — genuinely closer to an amaro than a typical sweet vermouth, though still built around a wine base rather than a spirit. The nose balances lush, sweet wine notes against drier, woodier ones: strawberry and rhubarb up front, fresh grass and vanilla underneath. On the palate, sweetness arrives first with a tart citrus edge, before cinchona bitterness and rising acidity take over through the back half. The finish stays balanced between sweetness, acidity, and that persistent cinchona bite. Bottled at 16% ABV, it's traditionally served chilled, neat or on the rocks with lemon, though it also makes a noticeably more bitter, complex Negroni.
