Staff Pick Notes

Here is a historical fun fact along with some tasting notes. Monte Pasubio in the Dolomites is famed for its road with 52 tunnels. Built by the Italian army as an alternate supply route, this road shows the Italian ingenuity to make what one has available work to his or her advantage. This amaro serves as a regional tribute to ingenuity of all sorts! Guiseppe Cappellitti is revered for his Italian digestif creations. The nose of this blend offers notes of tree bark, root beer and other woody, earthy elements. The palate shows more cola notes and a light, pleasant bitterness that slowly increases through the culmination. Hints of mint also appear as the finish lingers. If you are unsure of where to start exploring amari, you have found a great starting point without traversing a mountainous path including 52 tunnels!
