What is an Amaro?
An amaro is a traditional Italian herbal bitter liqueur, widely enjoyed as both an aperitif and digestif. The word “amaro” translates to “bitter” in Italian, referring to the distinctive flavour profile created through infusions of herbs, roots, spices, flowers and citrus peels. Traditionally served after meals, amaros are celebrated for their aromatic complexity and digestive qualities.
Every amaro recipe is unique, often reflecting regional traditions and closely guarded family recipes. Scuppoz Amaro del Fondatore is a contemporary interpretation of this classic Italian category, enhanced by the warmth and richness of aged brandy.
Tasting Notes
The nose reveals layered herbal and spicy aromas with subtle hints of cinnamon, citrus and oak. On the palate, the bitter herbal character is perfectly balanced by the smooth depth of aged brandy and a velvety, gently sweet finish.
