Amaro Lago Maggiore

Produced by Rossi d’Angera, Amaro Lago Maggiore is an herbal liqueur whose recipe dates back to the late 19th century, born in the shadow of Northern Italy’s lakes and mountains. It blends a suite of alpine herbs, roots, spices, and mandarin peels, aiming for a softer, enveloping bitterness rather than harsh intensity. The brand uses 30 alpine herbs and allows the spirit to rest in barrels (from Allier) before bottling, contributing to its layered complexity.

Tasting Notes
On the nose, Amaro Lago Maggiore greets you with an herbal bouquet of mountain botanicals and a clear note of mandarin peel. The palate is velvety yet bright: the citrus lifts the darkness of root bitterness and rhubarb, while herbs and spices knit the flavors into a enveloping whole. The finish is clean but lingering, with candied mandarin and a gentle herbal bitterness inviting you to sip again.

Serving Suggestion
Enjoy chilled, neat, or over a large ice cube. You can also lighten it gently with soda or tonic to create a refreshing alpine-style amaro spritz.
