BASED ON AN ORIGINAL RECIPE FROM THE 1850’S WELL KNOWN IN ITALY AT THAT TIME AS…
‘APERITIVO DI CORTE’ – THE DRINK OF KINGS
•Championing the humble bergamot fruit, ITALICUS is produced at a family-owned distillery established in 1906 in Moncalieri, Torino. Bergamot from the UNESCO-protected area in the Calabrian region and cedro from Sicilia are infused in cold water to release their essential oils, in a time honored process called Sfumatura, before being blended with Italian neutral grain spirit.
•A delicate combination of Roman chamomile from Lazio, lavender, gentian, yellow roses and Melissa balm from Northern Italy are then rested macerated together for several days before being married with the bergamot and cedro essential oils to create the final liquid.
•ITALICUS founder Giuseppe Gallo comments, “This is an incredible moment in my career and I’m very pleased to share it with some of the best in the business, who I’m proud to call my friends. The launch of ITALICUS marks the end of a life-long ambition to bring back the Rosolio category which was first born during the renaissance with Caterina de Medici in Firenze.
