The Oban has always smelled like buttered fruitcake to me, and this was a way to create a flavor profile like the bitters, which smell like rum, plums, and clove.

Amari & bitter friends: an update

Prior to The Great Site Update of Christmas 2014, we published a list of amari hidden under a link on the recommended brands page. We have put some time and thought into our bitter friends, and have split the list into our top dozen or so recommendations, plus a list of other amari that are available.

Some amari are easy to find; others ... not so much. There are hundreds of amari that aren't even imported to the US. Look for amari at larger liquor stores, or specialty stores in the Italian section of your city.

  • Re Sacred Kiss (Improved), 6 hours 48 minutes ago Shawn C commented:

    Curated ingredients to match those in Ginny Landt's recipe (generic mezcal and maraschino, and Bitter Truth Violet.) I had to rework the KC Bitter Truth ingredient for their violet liqueur as it was not working--changed to fit the same form as other creme de violette brands. Note that the Crafted Pour link might not work, it was giving a message about the content being hidden; however a Google search will locate it and pull the page up properly--even though the URL is *exactly* the same as in the KC link. I even did a copy/paste/save in the recipe just in case something was missing, but when I click it in KC or enter it directly in the browser, I get the same message about it being hidden.

  • Re Mayor's Lament, 1 day ago Shawn C commented:

    This recipe has an omission, but that is traced back to the reference link at Frederic Yarm's excellent site. The 3 dashes of Regan's Orange Bitters in the book reference was omitted in the listing--although it is a 50/50 guess whether the version Yarm made actually had this (or not) and it was inadvertently left off the ingredient list. I will likely curate this to list the book reference and update accordingly.

    Tasty, wished I had read the note and backed off the punt e mes a tad. I miss the jammyness ofnthe classic carpano.

  • Re Sandfly, 2 days 7 hours ago Shawn C commented:

    Published & curated to show as authentic recipe, with year, creator and establishment.

  • Re Giuseppe's Lady, 2 days ago Shawn C commented:

    Published & curated to add establishment where it was created, approximate year, and to reword some of the history to avoid word-for-word copying from a portion of the reference.
