Updated Article

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]

Poor Red's

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

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

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?

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

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]
