Updated Article

[edit]

I've added a bit more detail and a reference to Maxxium's web site (Maxxium is the distributor for Galliano in most geographies). I've noted that a citation is needed for the "difficult to mix" assertion. Most mixology references I've found assert that its easy to mix with, and the anise and vanilla flavors add complexity to a cocktail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Consuelo D'Guiche (talkcontribs) 19:59, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who is this Breakthru Beverages listed as distributor? I can’t see any territory listed on the Galliano website where they are the distributor. AJTH (talk) 10:38, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Poor Red's

[edit]

I'm not buying that Poor Red's uses half of all the Galliano imported to the states. I found a Sacramento Bee article that quotes the bartender as saying he uses "30 to 35" bottles on a Saturday night. Optimistically, that's 10 cases a week or 500 or so cases a year, certainly not half of the U.S. imports. It's also bad wiki form to advertise your website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Consuelo D'Guiche (talkcontribs) 15:39, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation

[edit]

Pronunciation, anyone? Is it a hard 'G' or a soft 'G'? -- Mattbrundage (talk) 21:31, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hard G; the Italian G is soft when followed by an I or E, and hard when followed by A, O or U Luiswulf (talk) 15:28, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Names of Drinks Containing Galliano

[edit]

The story about why drinks containing Galliano usually contain "wall" and "bang" seems rather apocryphal especially when the taking into consideration the origins of the name of the alcohol's most famous usage (the "Harvey Wallbanger"). The explanation after it would seem to ring far truer.

drink?

[edit]

Wouldn't it be more appropriate for this article to be called Galliano (liquer)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.180.194.67 (talk) 19:39, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I think so. I’ll move it. —Ian Spackman (talk) 08:35, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Web Site

[edit]

Bols has recently updated the website and it no longer redirects to Bols. The Ristretto and Balsamico products are now mentioned. Consuelo D'Guiche (talk) 19:35, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

70 Proof?

[edit]

I was just cleaning out my parents pantry and found a bottle of Liquore Galliano that is labeled as 70 Proof, which is not one of the formulations presented in the article. Is this perhaps another formulation that is no longer in use? My parents would have bought this bottle some time in the mid- to late- 70's.

Pernod

[edit]

Anisette, ouzo and sambuca are types of anise drinks. Pernod (Ricard) is a brand, the drink's name being pastis. The sequence should thus be 'anisette, ouzo, sambuca and pastis' (instead of Pernod) 213.49.247.14 (talk) 21:08, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. ɱ (talk) 14:41, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
