$61.60 including GST

Description

According to legend, the idea for Disaronno Amaretto originated in Renaissance Italy in 1525 when an artist named Bernadino Luini created a commission while the innkeeper dressed as the Madonna of the Miracles. This liqueur was not fully produced using the same proprietary recipe that is still in use until about 1900. The specific method of production is unknown, but we do know that it involves the infusion of 17 different fruits and herbs, caramel, neutral spirit, and apricot kernel oil.

The nose is greeted with a strong scent of sweet marzipan. There’s no denying that this liquor smells strongly. A hint of toasted almonds provides a slight contrast to the rich richness. The almond notes bring back memories of marzipan and amaretti pastries as the palate adjusts. The tasting actually has more going on for it than the nose, which focuses primarily on one scent. Though primarily nutty, there are hints of vanilla and lemon zest, as well as a slight sharpness to counterbalance the sweetness, which adds to its allure. Although some people may like it undiluted, this liquor blends well into sour cocktails to give them a delightfully almond flavour.
