History

Cynar was created in 1952 by the Italian company Fratelli Branca, known for its other famous products like Fernet-Branca. The name 'Cynar' is derived from the scientific name for the artichoke, Cynara scolymus. Since its introduction, Cynar has gained popularity as a versatile amaro, appreciated for its unique flavor and lower alcohol content compared to other amaros.

In cocktails

Bartenders use Cynar in a variety of cocktails, often as a bitter component to balance sweetness or to add complexity. It can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as a key ingredient in cocktails like the Cynar Spritz or the Paper Plane. When serving, it pairs well with citrus, vermouth, and other herbal liqueurs.

Worth knowing

Cynar is often referred to as a 'healthier' amaro due to its lower alcohol content and the inclusion of artichokes, which are known for their digestive properties.
