History

Bittersweet, spiritous, herbal, and chocolate notes; very boozy, share if desired.

This recipe was developed by Brian Kane during his tenure as Beverage Director at Abe Fisher Restaurant in Philadelphia, USA. The adaptation stems from Brad Thomas Parsons' 2016 book Amaro, which includes Brian's explanation: "The name pays homage to the history of passing down recipes for amari production from one generation to the next."
