Mangrove Global has added the Fratelli Branca portfolio to its range, bringing a line-up of bitters, amaro, vermouth and coffee liqueur brands to its UK distribution roster.
Founded in Milan in 1845, Fratelli Branca has built its reputation on heritage spirits, with the portfolio focused on established recipes, traditional production methods and bitter-led flavour profiles.
The range represented by Mangrove includes:
- Fernet-Branca – a dark, bold bitter made with a secret blend of 27 herbs, spices and roots.
- Brancamenta – a lighter, mint-led expression made with Piedmont peppermint.
- Carpano – the vermouth range includes Carpano Rosso, Carpano Bianco, Carpano Dry and Carpano Botanic Bitter.
- Antica Formula – a rich amber vermouth made to a historical recipe, with spicy, citrus, nutty, raisin and clove notes.
- Punt e Mes – a red vermouth with a bittersweet flavour profile.
- Caffè Borghetti – an Italian coffee liqueur made with real Italian espresso coffee, delivering a roasted espresso character.
Mangrove Global said the partnership reflects momentum behind premium vermouth, bitter, amaro and coffee liqueur categories, with the initial focus on the on-trade and a secondary push into grocery as consumer demand develops.
