FUN FACTS:


Apologue Liqueurs is a Certified B Corporation that uses only natural, non-GMO ingredients out of Chicago and attempts to source all of its persimmons locally.


First released on Nantucket, Angel’s Envy “Unity” Single Barrel was blended by The Proprietors partner Anna Worgess and local liquor rep Dave Lower and is currently available only in New England. This limited Nantucket bottling will be continued and available through the spring.


Cardamaro is an Italian wine-based aperitif, similar to vermouth and infused with cardoon and blessed thistle (both plants related to the artichoke) that results in a lightly bitter flavor.
