Nonino's amaro is the perfect blend of sweetness and herbal bitterness. Crucial for a Paper Plane!

Quality Armagnac from grapes picked in 1975.  The brandy lies in barrel for decades before bottling.

Beautifully packaged Grappa Riserva with aromas of black pepper, tobacco leaf, and vanilla.

This cask-strength (brut de fut), 50.1 abv distillation of only Folle Blanche grapes, released in a limited run of 1000 bottles, will make a great addition to the obscure, special-occasions-only shelf of any liquor cabinet.

De Montal's 1982 vintage! Rod Stewart temporarily loses his $50,000 Porsche to a mugger in Los Angeles. Did he drink de Montal to cope? We don't know. Could be, though. Could be...

Florilege is one of the most beautiful Cognacs in the world, with a high percentage of Folle Blanche grapes and 45 years of age.

Where amari and schnappses are free to pull their ingredients from a variety of environments, heulikor, or 'hay liqueur', is typically made from a maceration of grassland- or meadow-specific botanicals. With a flavour profile of a meadow in bloom, this would make a great addition to a spring cocktail shelf.

Poli's take on a bitter. A little earthier thanks to the gentian and licorice roots, with elderflower on the nose pulling out a bubblegum-without-the-sugar note. A nice departure for anyone used to Campari.

This sweet hazelnut liqueur is dessert enough by itself but also great with coffee.
