This is part of a painting done on 1/1/2000 by my friend and artist Dan Molinda.

POTD 17/365 – Fernet

image

I recently rediscovered a bottle of Fernet-Branca that had been squirreled away years ago, after having been purchased in Prague and brought over by request, possibly by my brother.

According to Wikipedia, Fernet  “is a type of Amarillo, a bitter, aromatic spirit.” I agree. You can find it in some places in the US, especially in NYC and San Fran.
