Originally created in 1952, Cynar has become a classic Italian amaro perfectly showcasing the quintessential properties of these traditional regional bitter Italian liqueurs. The new higher proof is based on the regular recipe with a heightened sense of bitterness that straddles the line of old school amaro and a more intense alpine style. Notes include menthol, eucalyptus, licorice root, sage, dried chiles, roasted artichoke, spicy celery salt, root beer, and much more.
