In the thick of holiday celebrating, up to our knees in a lukewarm stew of eggnog and hot buttered rum, The Tasting Panel got to wondering how the drier flavors of bitters and digestifs are used this time of year. So, in the holiday spirit, we reached out to a few experts and even asked for a few merry recipes. Not to worry though, my sweet-toothed elves; for those traditionalists out there, we are also including a recipe or two concerning the sugared side of winter. 6 / the tasting panel / december 2016 UpFront with Fratelli Branca Lindsay Matteson and one of her favorite ingredients, Carpano Antica Formula. by Jessie Birschbach / photos by Timothy Murray
