Here we are trying out a new sweet vermouth to us, the Carpano Classico, which is the sibling of the Antica Formula we used in one of our posts from last week. We also tried it neat and it’s a rich and tasty vermouth that you could happily drink on its own. ⠀

The glasses are thrift shop finds from Berlin, and the plastic ant appears in one of our shoots for the third time. Sustainability is key!⠀
