This is a bitter aperitif liqueur created based on the recipe for the "Italian Bitter of Turin" dating back to the 1860s. Originally produced in Turin, Italy, under the name Torino Gran Classico, the recipe was purchased in 1925 by the small Swiss distillery E. Luginbühl, and a version has since been produced mainly for local consumption. Gran Classico was developed by returning to the original recipe; it is made from a maceration of 25 aromatic herbs and roots, including wormwood, gentian, bitter orange peel, rhubarb, and hyssop. The maceration also creates a naturally attractive golden amber color, and no additional coloring is added.
