Cardamaro is a wonderfully complex, yet refreshing vino amaro that works equally well as an aperitif, digestif, or mixed in cocktails. It is made by infusing a wine base with local ingredients like cardoon and blessed thistle, along with calumba, juniper, Gentiana Lutea berries, cloves, liquorice root, cardamom, lemon peel and marjoram cultivated in Piedmont. Substitute Cardamaro for whiskey for a lower ABV cocktail, or with vermouth for a twist on the classics.
