CONCRETE devised Charcuterie & Conversation as a contemporary take on the Italian aperitivo. Created as part of our Prima e Dopo menu, it has become a signature feature of our client networking events, bringing people together over artisan charcuterie, carefully crafted drinks and meaningful conversation.

‍

Wanting everyone to enjoy the experience, CONCRETE created Limecello®, a signature alcohol free aperitivo made with fresh lime, basil, tonic water and NO Secco. The response was so positive that we introduced a second Limecello® for those who enjoy an alcoholic serve, blending fresh lime, basil, tonic water, limoncello and Prosecco to deliver the same refreshing citrus character with a sparkling twist.

In Italy, aperitivo hour is traditionally enjoyed between 5pm and 7pm. It is a time to unwind after work with a refreshing drink and light bites before dinner. Today, this much loved tradition is evolving into apericena, particularly in Milan, where drinks are accompanied by generous sharing platters that transform aperitivo into a relaxed and informal evening meal.

Inspired by this tradition, Charcuterie & Conversation creates the perfect setting for clients to connect, share ideas and build lasting relationships over exceptional food, refreshing Limecello® aperitivos and great conversation.
