I know that the Lillet rep denied that they had changed their formulation at all (this was on Chowhound), but when I asked what she thought of her company's website that lists the time line of Lillet formulation changes over the decades, she had no answer or reply. She was basing it on tasting decades old bottles and claiming it was the same. I saw at Tales that she's going to be talking about how the company only misinformed people that things had changed and they hadn't.<br /><br />Generally in cocktails Lillet and Cocchi are interchangeable. Not the same exact flavor but more similar that say Dolin and Noilly Prat dry vermouths. Plus, Cocchi is cheaper and tastier straight out of the bottle than Lillet. Lillet does have better labels though.frederichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17939679837071519844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940010684303946553.post-31260381792876153522011-05-04T15:32:31.844-04:002011-05-04T15:32:31.844-04:00I have never had a chance to try Cocchi Americano ...I have never had a chance to try Cocchi Americano but I have read that it is the probably the closest modern equivalent to what Kina Lillet would have tasted like. Does the Cocchi Americano have quinine in it like Kina Lillet did?Sunny&Rummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02458769514011595854noreply@blogger.com
