Amoretti Premium Syrup, Butterscotch, 25.4 Ounce

Definitely recommend. Even family members who aren't huge fans of butterscotch kept asking for butterscotch lattes. We bought several of the Amoretti syrups, and I’ll include all of them in this review. We’ve tried pretty much all of the major brands, including Torani, Da Vinci, and Monin. This is our favorite brand. In general, the Amoretti syrups are richer and have more complex flavor profiles. They are also thicker, which makes them more versatile because they can be used for drizzling or dipping or even baking etc, as opposed to most other brands that are meant only for adding to drinks. We like some flavors more than others. I’ll include all of the flavors we’ve tried. Our favorite flavors are amaretto and butterscotch (our family and guests have gone through two thirds of a bottle in only 2 weeks). Our least favorite flavors are hazelnut (it’s more sweet than nutty, and we prefer a more nutty flavor) and caramel (we definitely won’t buy caramel again but will definitely try cajeta and dulce de leche). Dark chocolate. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this chocolate syrup is. It is NOT cloying (overly sweet), and it is not creamy (they do have a milk chocolate syrup for those who prefer a creamy chocolate). This tastes like real cocoa - like a dark chocolate bar that’s been melted into a syrup. We usually buy the Ghirardelli dark chocolate syrup, but we will be switching to this syrup. It is the perfect syrup to drizzle over ice cream or make a mocha latte. Vanilla bean. This is good. Definitely better than Torani. What I like about this syrup is that they went in the right direction with more vanilla, which means you don’t have to put as much in your coffee. It’s still not as good as homemade vanilla syrup, but I also can’t keep homemade vanilla syrup in the fridge for very long. I’ll try their other vanilla syrup (which is three times the price of this one) and see if it’s closer to my homemade version. That said, this is definitely the best vanilla syrup I’ve ever purchased. Caramel. This is our absolute least favorite of all of the flavors we have tried so far. The flavor profile is very simple. I wish I had seen the dulce de leche or cajeta flavors before I ordered the caramel. We will never use this syrup, but guests will often ask for caramel when we make espresso drinks for dinner parties, weekend brunches, etc. Hazelnut. This is just ok. It did not have enough nuttiness for our taste. We generally use hazelnut syrups very often, so we were very surprised. We all felt that the sweetness overpowered the nuttiness. I will likely send an email asking if they have other hazelnut products that we might like better for our coffee drinks because we are very impressed with the quality of the syrups - just not the flavor profiles of caramel or hazelnut. But hey, four out of six flavors were amazing. Amaretto. Wow. Just wow. This actually tastes like amaretto. This is an absolutely fantastic syrup. The quality of this particular syrup makes me want to try all of their nonalcoholic liqueur syrups. Jamaican rum will be up next! Butterscotch. This is the family favorite. Every single family member who was here over the holidays loved this butterscotch in their espresso drinks. We’ve tried other butterscotch syrups in the past, and nobody wanted to drink them. I bought this on a whim because I love butterscotch, and it was a real surprise hit. I thought it would be our least favorite, but it’s #1. Everyone was putting this in their lattes and drizzling it over ice cream and brownies. Flavors we plan to try next: cinnamon, coconut, Jamaican rum, cajeta, and dulce de leche. We’ll add these flavors to our review after we try them.

The perfect selection of delicious flavors for your morning coffee

Compared to other cola (or fruit) syrups, this one had an astringent/bitter taste I've not had before. I loved Monin's Cola syrup, but I can't find that anymore.

NGL, a certain French brand offers a richer flavor and mixes better than this one, but hear me out: I have a Drinkmate, which means I can add the flavoring prior to carbonating the bottle, which means I can shake the heck out of the bottle to get this syrup to dissolve really well prior to carbonating. The flavor here is at least 90% as delicious as the French one. So, this item takes my solid #2 spot for value and taste.

This is the best coffee syrup I have ever had! It's absolutely delicious and exactly what I was hoping for. I was very pleased that it came with a pump. Don't be fooled by the pump, it looks huge, like a garden hose, I was convinced syrup would either spray everywhere or it would be faaaaar to much for my double espresso. I was pleasantly surprised! It absolutely dispenses just the right amount, maybe a teaspoon at a time? Close to that I think. Even better? Not one drip or drop spilled. I have used many different syrup pumps in my life and most of them drip or get crusty, invite ants or flies in some way. Not this one! I have rarely been so pleased with a purchase like this. I have nothing negative to say, not even some constructive criticism! I am really looking forward to trying more flavors.

Not good, why? They are tiny! They aren’t thick syrup, but like watered down version of it. But omg TINY! Like 1-2 cups, ridiculous price for a joke! Don’t waste your $$$ it’s too hard to come by to waste it on this! I’d give it a zero if I could.

Excellent flavor. This syrup is significantly thicker than the DiVinci brands, so it needs a bit more stirring to combine it with coffee and other liquids. But it works more decoratively as a drizzle over whipped cream and other toppings.

Bottom line up front: If you desire something that tastes like Coke or Pepsi or the generic clones thereof, seek elsewhere; this product is not for you. To abuse an old sci-fi reference "It's cola, Jim, but not as we know it." After mixing it with cold water in the proportions recommended and tasting it, I would say that it actually is cola-like but with strong herbal overtones (one of which I can only describe as kind of pine-y) and a noticeable bit of bitterness alongside the sweetness is perceptible because of the much lower sugar content compared to the major brands. By the end of the first glass and with the impression reinforced by another glass a day later, I had decided that I enjoyed the herbal flavor, enough so that I'll buy another when this bottle runs out. However, I will admit it was something I had to actively contemplate for a bit and I certainly am not surprised that other reviewers have decided it wasn't for them. It is definitely a flavor that is off the beaten path but sometimes, like in this case, that's not a bad thing. Try it if you're feeling adventurous.

Tastes very chemically & nothing like other Chai syrups & powders I have tried. I would avoid this item. Good thing is it comes with a pump.

Tastes sooooo good! No need to go to Starbucks for a Peppermint Hot Cocoa anymore! I can make them at home and they taste exactly the same :)

yet again amoretti you have managed to make us hit the bottle yum yum wow this is like drinking a worthers original its fantastic as is all your range, packaging top quality as always its such a shame its delivered by yodel.

Spot on

Amazing taste but I need to use a larger quantity of the syrup than I would for Torani syrups. Love the taste though!
