Default Bitters

Does anyone have any experience with Campari or any other bitters? I've read good things about them. But have no real knowledge of them or their flavor profiles.
Help?

I alway use Angostura. I think it's the original bitters. Essential for a whiskey sour.

I often drink Campari and Orange Juice before dinner. It really awakens the apetite; especially at restaurants. Best made with fresh oranges. Also good with soda water and touch of Grenadine. You have to like bitter which is the most acquired basic taste.
Just typing this makes me want one. Campari is a sophisticated and suave drink.
