Cynar : Venice's Secret Recipe

Cynar is an Italian amaro made from artichokes and a blend of 13 botanicals, delivering a unique bittersweet experience with each sip. Known for its dark, herbaceous profile, Cynar offers a distinctive flavor that's less bitter than many other amari, making it an ideal entry point for those new to bitter liqueurs. Its layered taste combines notes of toffee, caramel, and earthiness with a subtle vegetal sweetness from the artichoke​.

Cynar's versatility shines in both traditional and modern cocktails. It works wonderfully in drinks like the Cynar Spritz, providing a refreshing alternative to Aperol, and in classic cocktails like the Cynar Manhattan, adding a depth of flavor that enhances the drink’s complexity. With its lower alcohol content of 16.5%, Cynar is perfect for sipping neat or over ice, and pairs beautifully with mixers like grapefruit soda or cola, a favorite combination in South America​.

Whether you're enjoying a laid-back evening at Dubai's Bluewaters Island after a day of exploring Ain Dubai, or hosting an intimate gathering in Abu Dhabi’s Khalifa City after a visit to the iconic Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Cynar brings a distinct, flavorful twist to your aperitif hour.
