Carpano Punt E Mes Originale Aperitivo

Punt E Mes is an original aperitif based on hillside wine, sugar and mountain herbs. Punt e Mes is said to have gotten its name back in 1870, when a stock broker who was caught up in a debate with a few colleagues at Bottega Carpano, ordered a vermouth laced with half a dose of quina liqueur. Punt E Mes roughly translates to "one and a half".
