Faccia Brutto Aperitivo 750mlMade in Brooklyn, NY, this Aperitivo tastes like orange, cherry, cassis, and herbs, and is perfectly bitter with that lovely gentian grip at the finish that we all love. The bitterness comes from quassia bark, rhubarb root, and it has just enough warm spices to ground its bitter nature. It's truly stunning and balanced. Perfect in a Negroni, Spritz, or Americano, as it leans more towards Campari in style (but without artificial stuff!). 24% abv

and Minella Bianco from Mount Etna (declassified)

and 5% NY Malted Barley
