Almost everyone knows Amaretto, but what kind of liqueur is the amber-colored, almost golden liquid? In keeping with time-honored tradition, this Amaretto is made from the stones of peaches and apricots. These give the fine liqueur its intense, nutty taste of high-quality almonds and the best marzipan. Its name is a diminutive of the Italian word “amaro”, which translates as “bitter”. Even the high-quality Amaretto from Italy is only bitter in the way that an Amaretto can be bitter: nuanced, finely balanced and of high quality. How is Bordiga Amaretto made? The secret recipe of Italian Amaretto includes an almond distillate that is mixed with other nut distillates to create a true composition. Infusions consist exclusively of beet sugar, to which no glucose syrup or other synthetic sweeteners are added. Real caramel gives the Amaretto its elegant golden brown color. The filtration takes place through paper before the liqueur from Italy is bottled in high-quality bottles. How is Amaretto enjoyed?

It is drunk neat, on ice or without, in desserts such as ice cream and tiramisu, in cocoa and coffee specialties or as an ingredient in extravagantly delicious cocktails and long drinks.

It is also a classic ingredient for martinis or creamy cocktails.
