Artichoke
Herbal & BotanicalAutumnUsed in ~4 drinks
A vegetal, slightly bitter flavor with an earthy sweetness underneath — the signature of Cynar and the Italian carciofo amaro tradition. Artichoke in cocktails provides a savory depth and a bittersweet backbone that pairs remarkably well with citrus and aged spirits. Its unusual character makes it a bartender's secret weapon for adding complexity without obvious identification.
Aroma
The nose is earthy and green — dried leaves, a hint of caramelized vegetables, and a mineral quality like damp garden soil after rain.
