Status: offline 		I need recommendations for a favorite Amaro (that I can actually find in the US). I need it for a dinner in December so I can wait until fall and buy from someone who will ship to me.

Status: offline 		Amaro is a bitter/sweet Italian digestivo
I'm going to pick up a Fernet Branca in Orlando next week. I'll try some others too

Status: offline 		You can find a good selection of Amaro at K&L (klwines.com). I deal with the Northern California spirits buyer all the time. He is really passionate about spirits and is very knowledgeable and helpful. Send him an email, I'm sure he'd love to help you. His name is David Driscoll (daviddriscoll@klwines.com).
