Ottavia Castellaro presents L’Indugio cocktail at Peccati di Gola

Ligurian bartender Ottavia Castellaro introduced her new cocktail, L’Indugio, during the 2026 Peccati di Gola event in Mondovì. The drink was designed to reflect the theme of temptation, which serves as the guiding concept for this year's manifestation.

The cocktail features Rakikò, a traditional digestif from Mondovì produced since 1924, combined with red vermouth, hazelnut liqueur, brandy, and Angostura bitters. Castellaro emphasized the use of aromatic herbs, specifically incorporating sage and santoreggia, to create a flavor profile that highlights local Piedmontese ingredients and traditions.
