Amaranca

Amaranca is an excellent liqueur born in 1998 thanks to the intuition of Saint Romeo, in warmer and more welcoming Sicily, following an ancient family recipe that has remained secret. The recipe, in addition to the mysterious component, involves the use of unique and sought-after raw materials, all strongly linked to the territory. Among these there are also wild oranges from Sicily, Melangole, a variety from the Far East and imported in Sicily around the year 1000. Wild orange is also added extracts of herbs and roots born under the shade of Etna, selected and worked always following, scrupulously, the ancient family recipe.

The mix of these ingredients gives the Sicilian liqueur its peculiar characteristics: citrus notes, a dark and intriguing appearance, graceful taste and an intense and fruity bouquet. The bitter has a unique taste and surprising aphrodisiac and therapeutic properties. The palate immediately perceives slight sweet notes, followed by the more bitter herbs. To fully enjoy every little taste, we recommend trying the smooth Amaranca liqueur, at a cold (but also ambient) temperature and in a low tumbler glass together with fresh mint and orange peel. It is often recommended as a summer drink to be served with plenty of ice or as a digestive at the end of meals. The perfect mix? Long drink with Amaranca and premium tonic.

Worthy of note is certainly the recognition obtained in IWSC, competition with competitors from more than 90 countries around the world, in which each liqueur was subjected to the careful judgment of 400 tasters who, in a double blind session, have tasted and awarded the well-known Sicilian bitter. Another medal of the hour came in 2019 in the International Spirits Challenge, a prestigious world competition, in which more than 1700 products took part.
