Tasting Notes:
From one of the masters of traditional Italian liqueurs, for Alta Verde, Cappelletti uses assenzio wormwood as its bitter base and surrounds it with a bouquet of herbaceous and fresh citrus focused botanicals lending this amaro both complexity while keeping it from becoming heavy or astringent. Definitely, one that should be worked into the rotation of great bitters out there.
