  • Very nice blend of amari! I don't drink whiskey straight, but I'm enjoying it in this drink as it is the right base spirit to blend with the complexity of the amari.
  • Excellent, although no chocolate bitters used.
  • A bit more medicinal than I expected. I suspect that playing with amaros and bitters makes a huge difference. I used ciocaro as suggested and 1 aztec chocolate and 1 cardamom bitters.
  • Made with CioCiaro. Rich, in the 1794 neighborhood.
  • Abano as Amaro
  • Compared with B Cubed.

What Amaro do you recommend? I would think something not too bitter? Nonino?

For the amaro, I generally use CioCiaro. and Averna if I don't have that. :)
