Just finished a crazy tasting of top Canadian microbrews. Top ones, http://t.co/WNT2JZjO, http://t.co/mgSu7ADf, http://t.co/yiK7BC2H
Rossi D’Asiago’s lemon liqueur is surprisingly bitter (which is a compliment when it comes to amaro) although this is mitigated by a streak of icing sugar sweetness. There is no actual lemon juice so it is not sour — the flavour comes from lemon zest, giving it a refreshing citrus pop. This is the only amaro that really suits tonic water and ice: the resulting cocktail is perhaps the best consolation for a hot summer afternoon.
