Disaronno Originale is a renowned Italian liqueur celebrated for its distinctive almond flavor, despite containing no almonds. Crafted in Saronno, Italy, it offers a harmonious blend of sweetness and complexity.

Production

Disaronno Originale is produced by infusing apricot kernel oil with absolute alcohol, burnt sugar, and a secret mix of seventeen herbs and fruits. This unique process results in a smooth, amber-colored liqueur with a 28% ABV. The iconic square bottle design was created by a Murano glassmaker in the 1970s, symbolizing Italian craftsmanship.

Taste Profile

The aroma is rich with marzipan, vanilla, and toasted almond notes. On the palate, it delivers a sweet, syrupy texture with flavors of marzipan, macaroon, madeira, battenberg cake, vanilla, lemon zestiness, toasted almonds, and apricots. The finish is long, featuring toasted almond and marzipan, balanced by a faint toasty bitterness.

Origin & Heritage

Originating from Saronno, Lombardy, Italy, Disaronno has been crafted since 1525. Its rich history and unique production methods have made it a symbol of Italian heritage.

Serving Suggestions

Disaronno Originale is versatile, enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails like the Amaretto Sour. It also pairs well with coffee and desserts such as tiramisu and almond pastries.
