Vecchio Amaro Del Capo
Liqueur

Category: Aperitivo

Date Tasted:
Country: Italy
Alcohol: 35%
Light dark amber color. Aromas and flavors of toasted orange zest, honey and clove, coriander, and gentian root and artichoke with a round, crisp, off-dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, involved, medium-long finish with overtones of clove, orange and honey cinnamon, walnut and cocoa nibs, and maduro tobacco. A delicious digestif with enough sweetness to appeal to consumers new to the category but enough complexity to appeal to connoisseurs sip after sip.

Serve in a Copita
Broadly speaking, an aperitivo drink is any beverage intended to "open up the palate" and is drunk before a meal. An aperitivo liqueur is typically bitter, light, and served in spritz with sparkling wine and/or mineral water. Campari and Aperol are two well-known products in this category.
