Don't get it twisted--Campari will always have a place in my heart. BUT I have to say that this is really a superior product. A very apt replacement, especially delicious in a Negroni. No artificial color or flavor. — 10 years ago
The name almost had me turned off but the bitterness is quite mild. A very impressive ale, refreshing as drinking an iced tea! — 10 years ago
Excellent. Pleasantly bitter with a dark chocolate finish. Try using it in place of sweet vermouth in an Anejo tequila manhattan with Fee brothers Aztec chocolate bitters — 11 years ago
Citrus and clean not bitter! 💜 — 7 years ago
Blood orange,liquorice , strawberry, violet (?), grilled meat(?!) on the nose. I could spend the evening with my nose upon this glass! What a nose ! Blood orange again on the palate which tends to have this bitter feeling all along the acid backbone. Red fruits around there too. Not as Burgundian and ethereal and precise as the chateau (cdr) in the same vintage but I can feel the lineage here. The finish is long with a bitter salty touch. Wow again. For a 13€ price-tag I could have this any given day. Perhaps one of the best value ever encountered. I can’t wait to open the big big brother fonsalette — 7 years ago
Funky introduction with subtle tannins. After 2-3 hours of opening, bitter vanilla with nice end tannins and fresh acidity. Nice savoriness. — 8 years ago
Great with fish and chips at Huxleys — 9 years ago
Chocolate-y brown nose, with malty coffee, caramel and a smidgen of maple and wheat bran. Frothy cappuccino head with sudsy lacing. Wooden, dark-toast entry shows a mousse of some finesse, a rootbeer type character that becomes honeyed, then bakers Choctaw, but always with a sugared black coffee playing shadow. Ends with an expansive, bitter kola nut hangs around to make interesting conversation with your taste buds. Her name is Caryatis, and her wooden demeanor should not be taken as a surly distillation of her character, but merely a symptom of the Sazerac she had for breakfast. — 10 years ago
Very tasty. Smooth, with a pleasing bite. — 10 years ago
Decent, a bit bitter. Paired with steak and lobster. — 10 years ago
Still in need of further cellaring or an extended decant. Seductive dark berry notes though with nice bitter chocolate and espresso bean notes too. — 10 years ago
it's a tiny bit bitter but it gets you really drunk. — 10 years ago
Delicious. Bitter as a homeless man's unwashed ballsack, but tasty — 11 years ago
Rye whiskey in beer form. Rich smooth delicious and 15% abv?! — 9 years ago
Old favourite. This was still primary, dried red fruits and classic slight bitter notes. More forward and exuberant than usual, perhaps because of the vintage. But still oh-so-balanced and elegant — 10 years ago
Quinine, bitter orange peel and a touch of burnt sugar. 40% ABV. Zesty and delicious. — 10 years ago
Thank you Corkbuzz! I dig this amaro. — 10 years ago

Now, even though I’m more of a Roussanne guy than a Marsanne guy, this is really good. Lots of wax and lanolin on the nose. Bitter pear fruit. Soft in the mouth with good intensity, very clean finish. Medium acids. Very good value. — 7 years ago
