Before talking about what I had the pleasure of tasting, I have to give a big round of applause to its creativity and packaging.
This is one of those products that manages to captivate even before the first sip.
Alluring in its packaging, stimulating in its design, brilliant in its name.
An “object” you immediately want to get your hands on…
But Bomba Carta is not an object—it’s the name of the new amaro by Silvio Carta.
After fine wines and high-quality spirits—not least his gins—comes a new surprise. And, as it turns out, a very pleasant one.
The name is explosive, but on the palate this amaro is anything but overpowering.
It impresses with its balance, with the remarkable harmony of all the notes from the “herbs of Sardinia,” and with its ability to glide across the palate without ever becoming cloying.
Not a single off note. It makes you want to drink it again—and to share it.
This year, Santa Claus comes from Oristano.
I’ve always preferred rum, but this time I’m more than happy to make a delightful exception…
