American Aperitif

Category: Aperitivo

Date Tasted:
Country: USA
Alcohol: 20%
Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of candied bitter orange, licorice root, lemonade powder, and persimmon with a round, tangy, fruity medium-to-full body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish conveying overtones of orange flavored limeade, orange zest, red grapefruit, and dried apricot and green herbs. An interesting and quality aperitivo that allures you by being approachable and just outside of the standard flavor profile.

Broadly speaking, an aperitivo drink is any beverage intended to "open up the palate" and is drunk before a meal. An aperitivo liqueur is typically bitter, light, and served in spritz with sparkling wine and/or mineral water. Campari and Aperol are two well-known products in this category.
