Amaro, Aperitivos, & Vermouth 

This is an exciting category because you never quite know what you’ll get. A bittersweet red classic from Italy? A complex clear gem from Spain? Something exciting from Alberta? Typically wine-based, amaro, aperitivi, and vermouth are infused with a range of botanicals, including spices, herbs, even coffee and, as the name aperitivo suggests, they are traditionally served before dinner. - Shelley Boettcher
