Liqueur: Lazzaroni Amaretto

Lazzaroni Amaretto has been produced and bottled since 1851 in the Italian town of Saronno, where it was developed by Paolo and Davide Lazzaroni. It shares the same branding with the Amaretti del Chiostro di Saronno cookies and is made by infusing these with alcohol rather than from an essence.

“Brown color. Rich aromas of peppermint oil, cola and baking spices with a satiny, lively, moderately sweet medium-full body and a warming, complex, very long bitter roots and herbs, pine, pepper, and honeyed grapefruit finish. A sensationally drinkable minty Amaro.”
