Pros

  • I absolutely love Cynar. I put off buying it for a long time because it just sounds weird (liquer from artichokes) but that was a mistake. Its great. Highly recommended.
  • Cynar is one of those bottles with no comparison. Not a lot of artichoke among the other Amari.
  • Quite nice, and I'm looking forward to making some other Cynar things after the calendar is complete
  • Buy the Cynar, make some Artichoke Holds and never look back.
  • I personally love having a bottle of Cynar around.

Cons

  • Cynar: Smells like semi-putrid artichokes. Tastes like heavily sweetened, lightly semi-putrid, bitter-sweet artichoke sour syrup. Makes me sad for the artichokes that gave their life for this.
  • Punt E Mes is like Cynar for me, not even that cool or my thing on its own, but almost every drink with it is simply great.
  • I once made the mistake of ordering a Negroni w/ Cynar subbed for Campari, in a VERY old school Italian restaurant.

Cynar, Fernet, Aperol or Campari are dirt cheap and very common in supermarkets here.
