Amaro Montenegro
One of Italy's most iconic herbal liqueurs, Amaro Montenegro has been crafted in Bologna since 1885. Its secret blend of 40 botanicals delivers fragrant orange peel, sweet citrus, delicate florals and warming spice, balanced by velvety sweetness and an elegant herbal bitterness.
Created by adventurous herbalist Stanislao Cobianchi, who travelled the world collecting exotic botanicals after abandoning his family's plans for him to become a priest, the liqueur was originally called Elisir Lungavita — the Elixir of Long Life.
In 1896, Cobianchi renamed it Amaro Montenegro in honour of Princess Elena of Montenegro, the future Queen of Italy. Remarkably, the original recipe remains a closely guarded secret more than 140 years later.
A celebrated Italian digestif, equally delicious neat, over ice or in sophisticated cocktails.
