The "Bergamotto Fantastico" fruit liqueur is a unique celebration of an ancient bergamot variety, thriving in its perfect habitat in Calabria. Crafted by Vecchio Magazzino Doganale, this liqueur is a tribute to the extraordinary Bergamot Fantastico, a citrus fruit known for its exceptional qualities.
Distinctive in its production, this liqueur is made exclusively from FRESH FRUIT, unlike other producers who might use dried fruit. Each piece is hand-peeled, sourced directly from the Pellaro gardens, ensuring the freshness and authenticity of the ingredients. The bergamot peels are then infused for two months, a meticulous process that fully captures the essence of this prized citrus.
The infusion is carefully filtered through linen cloths and then bottled, preserving the pure, unadulterated scent and flavor of authentic Calabrian Bergamot, celebrated as the king of citrus fruits. The liqueur is further enhanced with a harmonious blend of coriander, cardamom, lavender, and aloe, adding layers of complexity and depth to its profile.
"Bergamotto Fantastico" is not just a drink, but an experience. It invites a unique serving suggestion: mix equal parts with tequila and top with soda water for a refreshing and innovative cocktail that perfectly showcases the rich and vibrant character of Calabrian Bergamot. This liqueur is more than a beverage; it's a journey through the heart of Calabrian tradition and the pinnacle of citrus excellence.
