AMARO

   What is Amaro?

Amaro, meaning "bitter" in Italian, is a type of Italian herbal liqueur that offers a complex and delightful experience. It's typically enjoyed as a digestif, which means it's often sipped after a meal to aid digestion and provide a satisfying end to your dining experience.

How is Amaro Made?

Amaro is made by infusing a variety of herbs, roots, flowers, bark, and citrus peels in alcohol, which is then sweetened and aged. The specific ingredients and recipes can vary widely, resulting in a range of flavors from sweet and citrusy to herbal and bitter.

Flavors and Varieties

Each Amaro has its unique profile. Here are some key characteristics:

• Bittersweet: A balance of bitter and sweet flavors, often with hints of citrus and spices.

• Herbal: Rich herbal notes, sometimes with a hint of mint, chamomile, or even artichoke.

• Complex: Layered flavors that evolve on your palate, making each sip an exploration.

How to Enjoy Amaro

• Straight Up: Savor it neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its complex flavors.

• Cocktails: Amaro can be used as a unique ingredient in cocktails, adding depth and a bittersweet note.

• With Dessert: Pair Amaro with desserts, especially those that are rich or creamy, for a balanced contrast.
