Neat. Room temp. A deep, syrupy brown. A tangy and crisp nose reveals cola, mint, orange, fennel, and chocolate. Bergamot. Herbs and barrel notes steer the mind toward American rye whiskey. Extremely sweet. Consistent with the nose - leads with orange, lemon, and cola, then molasses, coffee beans, and dark chocolate. Gentian. Oregano. Root beer. The sweetness, herbaceous chocolate, and clove/allspice linger. New to amaro but I like this. Definitely a tooth-coating sugar bomb but could see sipping from time to time - the fruit/root/herb/spice does just enough to keep it interesting. Might be better thinned out over ice. A wallop of a modifier for cocktails.
