I would second the Margerum Amaro.

Also, J. Rieger & Co. Café Amaro. It is a coffee flavored Amaro in collaboration with Thou Mayest Coffee Roasters in Kansas City. J. Rieger & Co. was a distillery founded in the west bottoms in Kansas City in 1887 and became a casualty of prohibition. 95 years later they were brought back by Andy Rieger and Ryan Maybe. distributed in 13 states now, it is defiantly a brand to check out.

Great article. I need to check out a few of these as I have not come across a number of them.

Cheers.

Thanks for the article on Amari and for the heads up on Brad Parson's new book. I read his book on Bitters and enjoyed it. I look forward to receiving my copy of his new book .

I would add Doug Margerum's Amaro from Santa Barbara.

Just as a comment, I think the Italians have a lock on the appreciate of the bitter taste spectrum. I find it frustrating that many people raised in the US often describe bitter flavors as sour and vice-versa. That may be set to change if Brad's predictions ring true!

[mention:0a1f6254af474b2e8f745abdddd64ba3:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] It's not cut off - it just ends with the tasting notes.

Is it just me or is part of this cut off? Great article though.
