Reading the bitterness
The International Bartenders Association (IBA) lists the Americano as one of "The Unforgettables". Its recipe specifies 30ml Bitter Campari and 30ml sweet red vermouth with a splash of soda water, mixed directly in an old-fashioned glass filled with ice, stirred lightly, and garnished with an orange half-moon slice and lemon peel. Campari is identified here by the word 「ビター」 (in translation: "bitter").
Campari's own official history page gives conflicting indications of when the Americano arose. Its timeline section for 1920 says 「アメリカーノとネグローニがこの時代に生まれた」 (in translation: "the Americano and Negroni were born in this era"); another feature on the same site says 『1919年に考案されたネグローニから、1933年のアメリカーノへ』 (in translation: "from the Negroni created in 1919 to the Americano of 1933"), explicitly giving 1933 for the Americano. These dates do not agree within material from the same company and the same page; there is no basis here to decide which is correct.

Scope: Official IBA recipe.
Note: Vermouth is linked to the existing ingredient-vermouth entry (the subtype name remains in the object text). Soda water has not been made an entity because it is not directly related to the bitterness theme.

Note: This is a mismatch between dates on the same company's same page. In light of the lesson from the erroneous Unicum attribution and invented numbers discovered previously, neither is turned into a definitive claim; both formulations are recorded as written.
