A Taste of What You Will Experience
Limoncello
A bright, citrus-forward cocktail using Limoncello, a classic Southern Italian liqueur made from lemon zest. Refreshing and sweet, it captures the essence of the Amalfi Coast and Sicilian sunshine.
Negroni
A staple of the Italian Aperitivo tradition. The Negroni combines gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth for a bold, bittersweet flavor.
Averna
A traditional Sicilian amaro from Caltanissetta, Averna is rich, sweet, and herbal with notes of orange, licorice, and spice. Enjoyed on the rocks or as a smooth base in darker cocktails, it embodies centuries of monastic herbal craftsmanship.
Strega
Produced in Benevento, Italy since 1860, Strega is a golden herbal liqueur infused with saffron, mint, and over 70 botanicals. Its complex, minty-sweet flavor makes it ideal as a digestif or a unique dessert cocktail ingredient.
