Yow. It must be a flaw in my tastebuds - I respect your expertise and judgment, but I bought some Planteray original dark recently that I can't drink. It tastes like rubbing alcohol and cheap plastic bathmats to me. I will save my Cynar.

I love Cynar, we had it in Rome for our anniversary. But Planteray is my favorite. I wonder why yours tasted like shit!

It's a mystery. I am generally not fussy.

I first had Cynar in Tuscany in 1979. Loved it ever since, although it used to be cheap and easy to find in my rustbelt childhood town, with its solid layer of Italian culture, and is now a high-priced luxury item when I can find it here in the northeast.

That was meant for Hooper, of course. My substacking has been poor lately. Like my proofreading.

Sorry, Editrix, today everything in the world seemed even more extraordinarily painful and woeful than ever, so I didn't read as much as usual. The bio of Gloria was fascinating, CIA episode included. I did not know as much about her as I had imagined.
