KEY POINTS:

Kinas were originally created in the late 19th century to make quinine more palatable when used for medicinal purposes

An 'Alps-Provence' style Kina using white wine made from the Piedmont-grown Cortese grape

Infused with Cinchona bark (produces quinine, the principal bitter taste), Orange Peel, Wormwood and other exotic spices

Kina Aéro d'Or is absolutely spectacular in classic cocktails such as the 20th Century, Vesper or Corpse Reviver #2

L'Aéro d'Or (The Golden Aeroplane) is a tribute to the first flight across the English Channel, made in 1909 by Frenchman Louis Blériot in his creation, the monoplane. 

TASTING NOTES:

It has a beautiful deep golden hue with an aroma of quince and fine marmalade, and a complex, mildly bitter taste that teases the tongue as its well-balanced sweetness and viscosity prolongs the finish.
