History
Aperol was originally created in 1919 by Luigi and Silvio Barbieri[2] after seven years of experimentation. It did not become widely popular until after World War II.[3] It was first produced by the Barbieri company, based in Padua, but is now produced by the Campari Group. Although it tastes and smells much like Campari, Aperol has an alcohol content of 11%—less than half that of Campari. They have the same sugar content,[citation needed] and Aperol is less bitter in taste. Campari is also much darker in color.
