Description
The *Amaro* from Florio is a distinguished Sicilian herbal liqueur, crafted by one of the island’s most historic producers, renowned worldwide for their Marsala wines. Drawing on generations of expertise, Florio blends a carefully selected base of wine and spirit with an infusion of Mediterranean herbs, roots, spices, and citrus peels. The result is a bittersweet, aromatic *amaro* that reflects the richness of Sicily’s land, climate, and culinary heritage.
In the glass, it shows a deep mahogany hue with warm amber highlights, a visual promise of its complexity. The nose is richly layered, offering aromas of candied orange peel, caramel, and dried fig, intertwined with herbal notes of myrtle, gentian, and bitter orange. Subtle hints of cocoa, liquorice, and spice add depth and intrigue.
On the palate, Florio *Amaro* is smooth and well-balanced, opening with sweet notes of caramelised fruit before evolving into a refined herbal bitterness. Flavours of spiced citrus, raisin, and warm spice mingle with earthy, botanical undertones, leading to a long, warming finish with lingering notes of citrus zest and aromatic herbs.
Perfect as a digestivo served neat at cellar temperature, it also works beautifully over ice with an orange slice or lengthened with soda for a refreshing aperitivo. Florio’s *Amaro* is a taste of authentic Sicily—complex, elegant, and steeped in tradition.
