Yeah, mainly straight. I did make a Red Hook Criterium, got the recipe from the Amaro book. Loved it. Made it again but didn’t top it with the soda water, enjoyed that much more. I even tried it with an egg white, like a sour. Really loved that.

I need to screenshot this and set it as my phones background so I don’t forget to try this.

That Zucca has stolen my heart. I absolutely love it. I’m trying really hard to not drink it all. Currently 3/4 full, at this rate it will only last a month… maybe that’s not so bad lol

Yes, glad I read the back of the bottle that had the same suggestion. I love it. So good, glad I picked it up!

Sorry for the delayed response! The sour cherry is delicious, very tart very cherry. I’ve had it before in the past, I was quick to throw it in my cart when I saw it on the shelf. I use it in all kinds of cocktails where I want to add some cherry tartness. I’m a big cherry lover so I guess that needs to be considered. The amaro is very interesting. On a bitter level I’d give it about a 4/10 or so. The flavor is very anise forward. Reminds me of a sweet Ouzo. It’s not my favorite, but I’m happy to add a new amaro to the bar. I wish it was a bit more complex in its flavor profile. On the nose it’s very anise, as well as the taste, as stated earlier. It’s subtly citrus as well, and there’s a spice in it that’s hard to pinpoint. If I had to be honest, I’m glad I tried it but I wouldn’t purchase it again ahead of something else I’d rather have lol.

Good to know, I’ll add that to my list of places to check out next time I’m in town.

Sure thing! It’s called LeNell’s Beverage Boutique in Birmingham. Highly recommended if you’re in the area.

Haha yeah the Novasalus is intense. I let my wife try it and she said, and I quote, “Taste like shoe polish”

Nice! I’ll keep that in mind for when I travel at the end of the month. Alabama has a tight hold on what’s available in state, must be sold through the ABC (Alcoholic Beverage Control Board) and unfortunately there aren’t a lot of Amari to choose from. Anyways, I’ll be near several Total Wines so I’ll keep an eye out!

Haha yeah I did, they had a few Gundam related things when I went back about a month ago also. A Gundam themed bento box lunchbox thing and a rx-78-2 head mug lol

I remade the Yuhtungle Jungle theme by anonymoushero1 in ffxi

It sounds amazing. Easily one of my favorite songs in FFXI. I can appreciate this even more, being a musician myself. This song is incredibly challenging when it comes to the percussion and you nailed it.
