CynarLiqueur(700mL)

<p>Campari’s artichoke pride.</p><p>Did you know that <em>artichokes</em> have been cultivated since the 4th century BC? They often used ashes to fertilize it and that’s where this iconic <em>artichoke-based Spirit</em> gets its name from: cynara was the Latin word for ash. Cynar was created in <em>Padua in 1952 </em>when <em>Angelo, Amedeo and Mario Dalle Molle</em> experimented with the taste of artichoke leaves. And the famous Liqueur, adored for distinctly sweet as well as bitter flavors was born.</p><p>The recipe for Cynar is still a closely guarded secret but we do know this much: an<em> infusion is made with 13 herbs and botanicals</em>, including artichoke. The thing is, however, the Spirit tastes nothing like artichoke. <em>Bittersweet and pungent</em> with complex flavors of caramel, toffee, cinnamon spice, and stewed vegetables, this is one unique Liqueur. It’s usually enjoyed as a digestivo after dinner or in high-end cocktails.</p>
