Amargo Vallet Angostura 90pf 750ml

Amargo Vallet Angostura

The recipe for this bitter liqueur was created by Monsieur Henri Vallet who emigrated to Mexico from France in the mid 1800s.

Henri Vallet came to Mexico from France in the mid-19th century, and began making European style digestive liqueurs, using traditional and local spices and botanicals. They've become beloved by many for their unapologetic intensity across the board. 

Lots of cinnamon bark and cola on the nose. Red fruit of some nature is present as a back note. The angostura bark comes through, especially on the finish. Gentian is also present but as a minor player. Average bitterness with the sweet factor just a notch below the bitterness. Overall this is a full flavored, spice driven amaro albeit one that isn't super complex. That said, it is worth the purchase.
