Review

On the bitter side of bittersweet, this is something of a cross between the Italian Spritz and Ernest Hemingway's Death in the Afternoon.

I am fan of Campari; however, this drink was too bitter for my taste.

Nothing special, very one note. Has a time and a place, but I'd reach for something a bit more interesting.

I made this with Luxardo Aperitivo - lower abv than Campari and not so bitter. I would probably like it better with Campari, however it is pretty good. I'd drink it again to finish the Aperitivo. Mind you, I LOVE Campari.

I mean I'm not that sold on Campari so I don't know quite what I expected but not that exciting for me.

Nice cocktail. Bitters adds an aperitif tones.
