I remember when I tasted Cynar like you. I was struck by how good it was in 1973. My first Amaro and I also was introduced to Averna too. I’m from Las Vegas former waiter and eventually manager and behind the bar too. Cheers to you!

It's funny I've seen Cynar a million times and never known what it was. Also, this cocktail looks PERFECT.
