Born in Friuli, borderland, crossroads of several populations and manifold influences, Roman, Arabian, Celtic, Venetian and Slavic; Amaro Nonino Quintessentia® is the result of the Nonino alchemic art, enriched by important cultural contaminations and great knowledge of botanical varieties also coming from far and exotic lands. The name Quintessentia® was chosen to celebrate the alchemic achievement of the purest essence in the generation passage of the family recipe. The cup that stands at the top and center of the label is the Bowl of Hygeia, a way to honor the origin of Amaro, historically born as a medicinal remedy.

Tawny and bright in the glass, this mellow, bittersweet beauty offers caramel and vanilla, braced by allspice and bitter orange. Although Nonino is best known for its grappas, this amaro, flavored with herbs from the mountains of Friuli, is worth seeking out. Consider it for dessert pairings or an edgy spin on a negroni. - K.N.
