  • Amaro
    Amaro means “bitter” in Italian. No legal definition exists, and though it originated in Italy, amaro (plural: amari) can be made anywhere. Originally created to aid in digestion, it is a bittersweet liqueur made from the maceration or distillation (or combination) of herbs, spices, roots, flowers, or other botanicals. Often uses neutral spirit as the base, but other liquor or wine can be used. Can be aged. Sugar is added before bottling. ABV varies, but tends to be 20-40%.

Tasting Notes

"Peeled lemons, cola syrup and gentian stand out aromatically, while on the palate, this amaro resembles a limoncello spiked with a basket of bitter herbs and roots. Deep, dark and with a bitterness that builds as it zips along the palate, it's pleasantly sweet but finishes with a spine-tingling bite at the last moment. "
