Sangallo Amaro Camatti (70cl, 20%)

Sangallo Amaro Camatti is Genoa's house bitter, created in 1924 by chemist Umberto Briganti in Recco and now produced by Sangallo Distillery Cinque Terre. It is built from roots, fruits, leaves, flowers, stalks and seeds of botanicals including almond, cinchona, mint, bitter orange and gentian, macerated or distilled in groups for three to four weeks in neutral grain spirit before sweetening with beet sugar syrup. Bottled at 20% ABV in a 700ml bottle, it has an earthy, herbal nose, a rich palate and a drying finish.
