Producer Description 

Vibrant, tangy Bitters made from organic Arneis grapes in Italy. A litre bottle to boot.

Thirteen herbs and spices have gone into Dave Fletcher's wonderful Acobia Bitter Vino, which is two more than the Colonel managed for KFC's secret recipe.

Certified organic Arneis was the base for the alcohol into which the herbs were infused. It's full of citrus, cherry cola, and a myriad of other flavours. It has great length and vibrancy, with a full-bodied feel.

Born in Italy in 1952, Cynar has become one of the world's most iconic amaro-style liqueurs — beloved by bartenders, digestivo enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a drink with genuine character. Its name derives from Cynara scolymus, the botanical name for artichoke, whose leaves provide the liqueur's most distinctive flavor compound: cynarine, a naturally occurring substance that gives Cynar its signature bittersweet complexity.

The Cynar Ricetta Originale Liqueur 33 Proof 1.0 Liter is crafted from a secret recipe that has remained unchanged since its creation — an infusion of 13 herbs and plants, anchored by artichoke leaf and balanced with a bittersweet herbal depth that is entirely its own. Rich, earthy, and layered, it is endlessly versatile: sip it on the rocks as an aperitivo, lengthen it with soda and a slice of orange, or let mixologists around the world show you what it can do in a cocktail.

Producer Description

Amber-colored, this grappa is very smooth at the taste, but never mawkish. In its aromatic profile the ranges of fruit and spices are predominant and that's right in the grappa with a long aging and a high quality standard.

In the range of fruity tastes we can catch the one of the dry fruit, so rare to find; together with the candied fruit, the raisins and the prune we can feel the fruit in syrup, the jam and the citrus. In the range of spices the flavor of the barrel is dominating, together with pepper, licorice, tobacco and clove.

The 12-year aging process transforms the raw, high-toned character of young grappa into a complex, mellow, and brandy-like spirit:

• Palate: Velvety smooth and oily, with a profound depth of flavor. The initial heat of the alcohol is perfectly integrated with rich flavors of caramel, honey, baked pear, and apricot jam. 
• The long aging substitutes the initial grappa fruitiness with secondary and tertiary oak-driven flavors.

Producer Description 

The 18-98 Family Solera was founded in 2001, keeping aside every year 7 barrels of Grappa until 2014, thus reaching 98 barriques  dedicated to this product. The youngest spirit that is gradually introduced in the family solera has a minimum aging of 18 months in barrique. Since 2015 we created a blend of the various vintages, in order to obtain a Grappa featuring unique and unmistakable style throughout the years.

The Solera method is an aging system that allows the grappa to merge different years in a harmonious blend as the time goes by. The new vintage is introduced in the barriques located on the highest row in the aging cellar, while the Grappa to be bottled is taken from the row close to the soil (solera). 

The solera row is never emptied completely, but just a part of it, which will be replaced by an equal amount of Grappa coming from the second row, which will be consequently fulfilled by the third row and so on, with a series of successive passages. This way on the lowest row, a blend of older and older vintages is obtained.

The aroma recalls a little wooden box full of chocolate, vanilla, licorice and freshly roasted coffee beans.

Cappelletti · Amaro Alta Verde · Trentino-Alto Adige · Italy

Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti was founded in 1909 in the historic Piazza Fiera in the center of Trento — a firm rooted from the very beginning in the tradition of herbs, roots, and flowers of the Alpine foothills. Today, four generations later, Luigi and Maddalena Cappelletti continue all production in-house from their home in Aldeno, 20 km south of Trento, surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards. Alta Verde is their traditional wormwood amaro: a style that was once common throughout the Adriatic but has become increasingly rare over the last half century. This is the real thing — uncompromising, botanical, and built for those who take their bitters seriously.

The principal ingredient is assenzio — a variety of wormwood — framed and lightened by a complementary blend of alpine herbs, citrus, and spice. The result is a deeply bitter, aromatic amaro with a drying finish and genuine complexity. Best enjoyed with citrus and tonic or soda, over ice with a big squeeze of lemon, or in cocktails where Alta Verde adds depth and a drying effect to balance sweeter drinks.

• Producer: Antica Erboristeria Cappelletti (Luigi & Maddalena Cappelletti), Aldeno, Trentino, Italy
• Founded: 1909 — fourth generation family production
• Style: Traditional wormwood amaro (Adriatic style)
