Antica Torino Genziana Liqueur 22% 750ml Northern Italy (special Order 1 Week)
| Description: | History,. Gentian liqueur produced by Antica Torino in Piedmont, Italy Base spirit distilled from Italian wheat Gentian flowers are harvested in the French & Italian Alps in spring and fall and the roots are macerated for approximately 60 days. The final infusion is combined with additional alcohol, a small amount of Piedmontese wine, water, and cane & sugar beet sugar and then lightly filtered before bottling. A high/low of citrus pith and forest floor aromas lead to a juicy yet moreish palate of sloe berry, myrrh, and oxidized lemon. A hint of Saigon cinnamon closes out a waxy finish that expresses gentle bitterness. No artificial coloring 22% Abv. Tasting Notes,. To say that gentian (Gentiana lutea) is a crucial player in the pageant of classic cocktailing ingredients would be an understatement; the precious plant's roots impart bitterness to a vast array of liqueurs (such as red bitters) and aromatized wines. Antica Torino zeroes in on this alpine ingredient in a delightfully multi-faceted spirit that begs to be used in Sours and Spritzes, subbed for Suze in a White Negroni, or paired with tonic or (yeah, we're saying it), Coca-Cola or Dr. Pepper. |
