Luxurious, rich and fruity, with delicate and gently lingering bitterness on the after palate. Almost chocolate-like notes from the Cocchi storico and bogarts. For me this could almost be a dessert/digestif due to the richness.

Note: is there an issue with the listed abv here? 0.1 standard drink seems very low.

Goes to show ya how much I pay attention to what I'm swilling. Only now in this moment have I finally figured out that Cocchi Storico and Cocchi di Torino are the same product. Lo and behold, the damn term 'Storico' is prominently printed on the label, smh... Using this product (and tasting the drink alongside a small pour of it), the cocktail expresses like an enhanced version of it, accentuating the fruity and bitter notes. It's almost the opposite of that Martini which includes but a whisper of vermouth.

Thanks for pointing this out, John. The vermouth was wrongly set to 0.0% alc./vol. It's now fixed.

Made the maraschino version for the first time tonight with Cocchi Storico and it was alright, but Craddock's version with some syrup and a lemon twist never fails to be delicious.
