I was thrilled when Distiller introduced liqueurs, mainly because I could finally review my beloved Disaronno!
The nose is almost one note: sweet-ass maraschino cherry. This is as close to nosing distilled cherry vanilla ice cream as you're probably ever going to get. Thick and syrupy-sweet on the palate, almond marzipan joins the cherry, with the accompanying alcohol reminding you of some sort of decadent flambée dessert. This is a simple but extremely delicious drink, the perfect dessert over ice, and overthinking it would be a disservice.

While this is superb in so many mixed drinks (Godfather, anyone?) its also excellent all by its lonesome. I love a little bit on ice next to my beer when I'm in a dessert kind of mood. Great stuff and definitely a "not guilty" pleasure! Nice review!
He had excellent taste. I'm sorry about his passing.
There is only one Disaronno. All pretenders pale in comparison. My dear departed brother's favorite go to.
