A high quality Amaro from the southern Italian region of Calabria (the toe of Italy’s boot, as it were).

This liqueur was first created by Giuseppe Caffo in 1915, as a medical tonic. The Caffo family continue to produce the Amaro to this day, and are now in their fourth generation of management.

The Amaro is made with 29 different herbs, flowers, roots, and fruits. The recipe includes juniper, ginger, laurel, anise, orange peel, mint, cardamom, elder, saffron, cinchona, gentian, bitter orange, citrus zest, angelica, sage, liquorice, chamomile, cloves and cinnamon.

The final result is a spicy, rooty Amaro, with notes of bittersweet quinine, citrus, juniper, pine, cloves, pressed flowers, honey, vanilla, black pepper and orange zest.

Delicious served ice cold in a shot, it also pairs well with cola or chinotta.
