Weekend Aperitif: Amaro Venti

The name "Venti" in Italian means twenty, representing the 20 regions of Italy from which the ingredients of this drink are sourced: Calabrian bergamot, lavender, and more.

Amaro Venti boasts flavors of nuttiness, refreshing citrus bitterness, and a subtle sweetness beneath all this richness.

The Italians enjoy it neat with ice and an orange slice or with a splash of soda, and I completely agree with them. A perfect weekend drink.Price: NIS 170
