What is an aperitif anyway? ✨
By definition, aperitif comes from the Latin “aperire” which means to open. It’s not just a lighter style spirit, it’s an appreciation for a place, a time of day, and the ritual it creates.
TANICA, like all good aperitifs, is:
💛 an opener for the appetite, the conversation and the evening ahead.
💛 lower in alcohol than other spirits, to linger over all afternoon without losing yourself.
💛 refreshing, often served with bubbles over ice.
💛 full of flavour and character.
💛 gives you a sense of place and local culture.
💛 made for aperitivo hour: a moment to arrive, slow down and just appreciate where you are and who you’re with.
As spritz culture has grown, the definition of aperitifs has quietly expanded too. Beyond imported orange bitters. More than limoncellos. We set out to create one of the first truly Australian aperitifs. Bright, vibrant and full of native character. A style and a ritual inspired by where we come from.
We hope you love it as much as we do.🥂
