Difford’s guide
Appearance: Clear, crimson red.
Aroma: Orange and pink grapefruit zests, orange sherbet, cherry, black pepper, quinine and vanilla with faint rose blossom.
Taste: Well-balanced bittersweetness with orange and grapefruit zestiness, feisty black pepper spice, vanilla and faint rose water.
Aftertaste: More black pepper spice in the long, bitter, zesty finish with rich but subtle cherry and rose.
Overall: A tad lighter in body than Campari with a touch more bitterness on the palate. Perhaps not as herbal as Campari but with attractive citrus, floral rose and orange blossom notes.
