Born in Calabria — the “toe of the foot” of Italy — Vecchio Amaro Del Capo (or just Del Capo) is a classic amaro made from 29 local herbs and roots. Lightly brown like a brewed tea, it looks a bit like whiskey in the glass but smells far different as it is poured. This dark drink is 32% abv and, as well as the usual ‘straight or with an ice cube’, can also be drunk as a ‘summer drink’ by adding it to a full glass of ice. … and the rest!A melange of aromas, it’s tough to describe exactly what you catch on the nose with Del Capo. I get rhubarb up front, with oily orange (juice and peel) close behind.
