Product Description

This herbal liqueur has 23% ABV and is crafted from a secret blend of 40 botanicals sourced from four continents, including orange peel, coriander seeds, marjoram, oregano, wormwood, cinnamon, and cloves. The botanicals undergo boiling, maceration in alcohol for 20–30 days, and distillation to produce 12 “mother essences.” These are blended into six aromatic notes, with a final “7th note” called Il Premio (The Prize)—a micro-distillate so potent that only one liter is used for every 15,000 liters of liqueur.

The flavor profile begins sweet with orange peel, vanilla, and rose petals, transitioning to a mildly bitter finish with hints of cherry and earthiness.
