L'aperitivo Nonino
Herbal/Spice Liqueurs — Italy
Reviewed
November 12, 2022 (edited November 13, 2022)
Italian, 21% abv. Golden yellow color and sweet herbal nose, light floral citrus, reminiscent of Suze. In the mouth, thin, dry, and then lightly sweet bitter floral herbal. Shortish finish, a little chemical medicinal flavor. Overall, light, lightly sweet and herbal, a hint of bitter and citrus. Not as rich and robust as Suze, but hints of that gentian herbal profile. However, given the price ($65) there are better alpine amari out there.
Does mix very well in the spritz cocktail listed on the bottle: two parts Nonino, 1 part sparkling wine, lemon juice, in a wine glass on ice. Lacks the bitter depth that makes other spritzes more interesting.
