Amaro Majora

Amaro Majora is made by Nepeta, a boutique Sicilian spirits brand launched around 2021. Majora is a savory, aromatic amaro built around two standout features: organic Sicilian marjoram (Origanum majorana) and Sicilian bitter orange peel. The brand calls it a “not-obvious” blend — neither overtly citrusy nor just herbaceous — aiming to be versatile across day and night drinking. Its botanicals are infused separately (marjoram, orange, herbal mix) and then recombined to give clarity and balance. 

Tasting Notes
On the nose, Majora offers fresh green marjoram layered over bright, bittersweet orange peel. The palate is a dance of herb and citrus: the marjoram gives gentle savory, balsamic notes, while bitter orange brings brightness and lift; gentian and wormwood lend a structured bitter backbone. The finish is clean, with lingering herbal echo and citrus zest lingering on the tongue. Frankly Wines+2Pasanella & Son+2

Serving Suggestion
Serve Majora over ice with soda or tonic for an aromatic aperitivo, or use it in cocktails (swap for other amari) when you want a gentian-citrus-herbal twist.
