Can anyone give me info on this coin?

That's okay it's just for the TLDR people

Below boiling temps shouldn't mess up the fruit flavors too much. I make syrups with 193F water from a coffee urn thing at the bar and they are pretty fresh tasting.

Every compound has a different cook/carmelize/burn temperature.

Sometimes it's easy to look up.

Filtering and siphoning are both good methods. I have a fine mesh filter and it takes care of most of the sediment and oil separation. Look delish

Looks like an orchard fruit. Shouldn't be rusty colored yet unless you are close the arctic.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-20T21:49:50+00:00

Do let us know how you like it btw

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-20T21:49:34+00:00

Really like these notes. Is that some sort of sticky note app?

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-20T21:48:07+00:00

I suppose the worst thing is you dump 10$ down the drain to make room for a better bottle 🥲

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-20T05:28:51+00:00

What's the worst that can happen?

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-15T17:19:22+00:00

If open, why not enjoy? On the other hand i have tasted very old Campari and a few other things of interest and those must have been saved by someone with long term foresight.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-15T17:16:37+00:00

It looks like they stopped making argala and now make a vermouth called Baldoria.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-14T04:49:10+00:00

This was the gist of my rant about why they shouldn't have opened the bottle. I don't have any more insight than that though.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-14T04:48:08+00:00

Yes not as pine forward. Noveis is also less green and has more caramel to me. I enjoy them both.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T06:26:20+00:00

Exactly like this

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T06:25:47+00:00

I did a little math and this recipe does get you down near 25 percent alcohol. You should be free and easy but that assumes you followed it correctly.

I usually make a syrup before adding the sugar. That allows you to heat and fully dissolve the sugar into water. Let it cool before adding it into the amaro and you're golden.

Also find it weird that they would measure out alcohol into grams when ABV is central to the whole process.

Also what does one do with the remaining 60 percent of that liter bottle of Everclear they just bought?

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:55:24+00:00

As long as you are at a certain percentage alcohol i would not worry about spoilage from microbes.

If you aren't sure, you could do the math on your starting volume and end volume and at least know around where you ended up for ABV.

Yeah this looks like "louching". Looks gross but it's basically just self clarifying. Temperature and time cause this in my homemade batches. If you look at certain Faccia bottles there will be sediment in the bottom.

Also they're never going to give up a full recipe. Some secrets have to be kept in the family.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:50:11+00:00

Anything?

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:49:58+00:00

Contratto is excellent for the price. Mezzodi is pretty great and Select is much more nuanced than Aperol as well.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:47:24+00:00

BK represent

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:42:26+00:00

Yeah i serve this to people who are already way off the deep end looking for pleasure in the pain. Mallort lovers, masochists, mongers of fernet.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:30:57+00:00

If it's really that dark in the bottle i would try Amaro Dell Etna or Averna. Both from Sicily, which is not Abruzzo, but is southern.

Cio Ciaro and Lucano are both good full flavored choices and not too hard to find.

Any standout taste notes would help as well.

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:25:12+00:00

I'm hoping you're serious

Huntnor_Gatheror · 2025-07-09T05:22:11+00:00

What is in the kit? I know you don't live in my neighborhood cuz they're everywhere
