    Grinta Amaro di Erbe

  • Brilliant, deep emerald green color. The aromatics are quite assertive, offering lovely scents of fresh peppermint, eucalyptus, and chamomile, with supporting notes of rhubarb, bitter root, and wild flowers. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering silky, semisweet herbal core redolent of green Chartreuse meeting a fragrant Gin in all its glory. Medium to full-bodied with incredible complexity, length, and balance. $39 – 4 Stars

    • Rossi d'Angera Spitz Genziana Liqueur

  • Brilliant, deep golden amber color. The nose is wonderfully floral with sweet herbs, earth, complex citrus accents ranging from orange peel, grapefruit, lemon, and lime. The palate echoes the nose delivering a more bitter than sweet herbal core with waves of citrus and earthy root notes that build on the long finish. Medium-bodied with amazingly complex aromatics and flavors punctuated but a generous dose of natural acidity making it an ideal aperitif. Beautifully expressive while being drier than its French counterparts. $29.99 – 4.5 Stars

    • Stambecco Maraschino Cherry Amaro

  • Brilliant copper/orange color. The nose is greeted with a medicinal cherry scent accented by notes of brown sugar, orange peel, and almonds. The palate echoes the nose delivering a sweet cherry-driven core with flanking notes of burnt orange, marzipan, dried herbs, and hints of vanilla. Medium-bodied with sweet fruits throughout — it's more sweet than bitter and the medicinal flavor lingers. This version of an Italian Amaro seems to be more about the package than the liquid. $35 – 3 Stars

    • Greenbar Fruitlab Jasmine Liqueur

  • Brilliant, ruby with hints of burnt orange. The nose is unmistakably jasmine with supporting notes of tea, citrus, and wild flowers (both fresh and dried). The palate echoes the nose delivering a sweet black tea-forward core with flanking notes of flowers, herbs, and candied lemon zest. Medium-bodied and sweet with subtle and delicate flavors that linger for minutes. $32.99 – 4 Stars

    • Di Antonio Amaretto Cream Liqueur

  • Thick, tan and creamy. A muted nose with soft scents of almond cream with candied nuts and a hint of mocha. Quite viscous on the palate with a very sweet Amaretto flavor on the front palate that quickly fades to not much more than sugar and cream. Medium-bodied while being thick on the palate and a bit flabby. Serve over ice. $15 – 3 Stars

    • Hamilton Petite Shrubb Orange Liqueur

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review

    Slightly hazy, deep, burnt orange color. The nose is assertively orange-focused with scents of both orange peel and flesh on a backdrop of sweet Rhum. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering a bold orange-dominated core with vibrant spicy accents redolent of candied ginger with hints of black pepper as the Rhum Agricole flavor rises on the finish. Full-bodied with ideal balance thanks to bright acidity and spicy orange. The uses in cocktails are endless. $29.95 – 4.5 Stars

    • Hamilton Pimento Dram Liqueur

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review & Beverage of the Week

    Hazy, golden straw color. The nose is extremely generous offering scents of freshly crushed pimento (known to most in the USA as allspice) berries with its exotic aromas triggering a wide range of memories from jerk chicken to Christmas cakes. The palate echoes the nose delivering beautiful allspice (pimento) flavors that range from fruity sweet to savory pepper with accents of clove, ginger, and nutmeg. Medium-bodied with perfect balance as the sugar is here to soften and expand the bold allspice (pimento) flavors. A must for any Tiki enthusiast or anyone looking to add something distinctive to their bar and pantry. $29.95 – 5 Stars

    • Somrus Coffee Cream Liqueur

  • See the Full BevX Featured Review & Beverage of the Week

    Viscous and creamy with a mocha color. The nose is filled with the aromas of a boutique cafe with scents of freshly roasted coffee supported by notes of mocha and milk chocolate with hints of chicory. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering a lush and silky cream and coffee-driven core with waves of chocolate, spice, and sweet Rum rising on the finish. This is a rich and mouth-filling liqueur with a surprising vibrancy that keeps it from becoming heavy or cloying. $24.99 – 5 Stars

    • Francescano Natura Assisi Limoncello

  • Cloudy, with a bright yellow color. The nose is filled with the scents of lemon drops with accents of lemon zest and cotton candy. The palate echoes the nose delivering rich and sweet lemon candy focused core with subtle zest notes. Medium-bodied with incredible viscosity coating every corner of your mouth — it's a very sweet Limoncello. $21.99 – 3 Stars

    • Cocalero Clasico South American Herbal Liqueur

  • Brilliant, electric green color. The nose is sweet with vibrant, citrus-based aromatics dominating and a bright dose of lavender and a subtle earthy note in support. The palate echoes the nose while being decidedly medicinal with sweet honey, green herbs, and soft licorice and ginger accents. Medium-bodied with sweet citrus and herbal flavors in the lead as it finishes with a mouth-numbing sensation. Use as an unexpected addition to your favorite cocktail recipes. $24.99 – 3.5 Stars
