Tasted & nosed over two medium ice cubes. Nose: very heavy bitter orange and worm wood. Cedar and hops are also present on the nose. Licorice and a faint dill as well. Nose opens up with more spicy notes after the first sip Taste: Very sweet with a strong spicy and bitter finish. Intense bitter citrus notes. Finish is long and dry. Sort of a midway point between Aperol and Campari. Would probably be better suited as an Aperol replacement rather than Campari.
