Not Italian, but grew up in an Italian town (the local deli/liquor store was named Tenuta’s): If it’s in the family, but it’s brown, it’s an amaro. If it’s red, but a straight sip DOES NOT make most people cuss, it’s an aperitivo. If it’s red and makes SOME people cuss, it’s a bitter. Tada!

Funny. I did live in Livorno for a couple of years and never took notice of the Galliano. Of course, I wasn't much into mixed whiskey drinks then as much as I am now. I've recently learned to love Averna in my Black Manhattans and I also have some Cynar sitting in my bar. I also like it neat with a dessert. And to me... the Campari is just nasty. I could never drink that straight. I assume that the Aperol is similar because it looks the same, but I've never tried it to be honest. Incidentally, if you don't like the Fernet Branca, look for the Branca Mente. It's quite an improvement.

I use Averna a good bit. But I read different answers on how long it lasts once opened. How long do you sense a bottle will last once opened and does it HAVE to be in the fridge?
@MasterYourGlass2 жыл бұрын
Averna in my opinion lasts at least one year. It is higher in alcohol (which as you know is a preservative) and also has a lot of sugar in it which is also a preservative. Vermouths are a different story because they contain wine. But don’t worry about your Amaro going bad. Cheers to you!

All of them can be used in cooking, and there are no set recipes that call for any specific one of them. So unfortunately, in the ever vague world of Amaro, the answer to your question is all can be used for cooking. Usually the application would be in a desert, that is soaked in alcohol such as tiramisu.

Wait, you're ACTUALLY explaining that the year on the bitters bottle is not the year of production? Geez, I must have dropped 45 IQ points when I clicked on this video....are we now going to learn which end of bottle to drink from? I just thought that was an interesting item to have to explain to us....
@MasterYourGlass3 жыл бұрын
What I actually said is that the year on the bottle is not actually the year that product was invented but the year the company was founded. Basically if Brand X Limoncello was invented in 1885 and they come out with an Amaro in 2006 they still keep the year 1885 on the label which can be misleading. Hope this gives you your IQ back.
