Amaro Nonino Quintessentia is an Italian bitter liqueur was invented in 1992 in Friuli, Northern Italy by a 4th generation distiller named Benito Nonino. What sets it apart from many other types of amaro is the fact that it is made with grappa base (a grape-based brandy), which lends distinctively fruity notes to the flavor profile. The grappa is then infused with the Nonino family recipe of botanicals Benito’s father Antonio used in 1933 using their art of distillation. The unique blend includes sweet and bitter orange, rhubarb, thyme, gentian root, quinine bark, wormwood, tamarind, and a host of other spices and mountain herbs for a gently bittersweet and less syrupy amaro that can easily be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, in amaro spritzes, or in amaro cocktails.

96 Points, Wine Enthusiast Top 50 spirits of 2014: 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. abv: 35%"
