Mixed feelings as I finally said goodbye to this in my fridge. Since the flavor profile decidedly lands on the Alpine, herb/menthol side, guess that makes me more of a fan of everything else Amaro. Funny though that this is Calabria borne- Italy’s toe is not Alpine as far as I know! Still, refreshing at times just brace yourself for the cough syrup associations.

Super aromatic, high toned, citrus, cinnamon, elegance and smells like your great Italian uncles old cologne!

Trying to describe Amaro in words is hard. This is something between a Nonino and a Fernet Branca.

Smooth and silky - a bit spicy. Really like this amaro a lot!
