Designed to showcase the versatility of Cocchi, the campaign features three easy-to-create serves: neat for ‘Sip’, a negroni for ‘Stir’, and a ‘Spritz’ serve, all using the brand’s hero product, Cocchi Storico Vermouth di Torino.
The campaign logo follows the brand’s Italian Futurism look and feel, and a series of eye-catching images have been created to display the three serves, demonstrating a variety of garnishes and glassware to create a visually appealing suite of assets.
The campaign will be supported by a marketing and communication campaign starting this month. It will launch across digital and social media platforms of key retailers before appearing in stores this Spring. Cocchi’s ambassador will tour the UK and lead a series of educational masterclasses and events across the country, all featuring the three serves.
Francesca Bava, Marketing Manager at Cocchi, says: “We’re very excited to be presenting our first global campaign which aims to show the versatility of Cocchi vermouth to the home bartender. Often lauded as the unsung hero of mixology, vermouth has a key role in many cocktails such as the Negroni, Martini or Spritz. We hope we’ll encourage drinkers to be more adventurous and discover the many ways it can be enjoyed.”
SIP, STIR, SPRITZ with Cocchi launches this May in the UK and will roll out globally in key markets in 2024.
