Tasting Notes Vecchio Amaro del Capo appears in its iced glass like clear and transparent amber with intense golden and brown reflections. Immediately sweet, its dense and creamy body envelops the taste with softness, revealing its warm alcoholic body in the cold of -4 F. The intense aromas that reach the nose unfold in a fresh sip rich in citrus aromas of orange and bergamot, to then unfold in the fresh scents of aromatic and balsamic herbs. The warmer floral tones of honey and spices (such as saffron and licorice) and pastry (vanilla and cookies) then step in softly and enveloping. Cooked fruit, dried fruit and toasted notes of caramel eventually show up to enrich this continuous discovery. A slight bitter hint gives personality to the soft embrace that slowly warms up and lingers for a long time in all its facets

The Story
An iconic product of Distilleria Caffo is Vecchio Amaro del Capo, a herb-based liqueur fruit of an ancient family recipe. The product has been improved over the years thanks to the expertise of the Caffo family acquired over 4 generations of distilling. Vecchio Amaro del Capo encloses the active principles of plenty of herbs, flowers, fruits and roots growing in Calabria infused with the finest alcohol. Among the 29 herbs composing the infusion we can find orange, liquorice , camomile, tangerine and juniper which are very common in this region. The delicate and aromatic taste of Vecchio Amaro del Capo suits well even more delicate palates not accustomed to this kind of beverages (Amaro means bitter in Italian) . Enjoy Vecchio Amaro del Capo ice cold (suggested serving temperature -20° C) to enhance flavors and scents of the herbs in the liqueur.
