Ariana - Amaro Liqueur

The spirit of exploration was definitely with our friends at Epoca Distinct Spirits who sourced this exquisite Amaro from the heart of Calabria, Italy. It's now bottled here at Dunrobin Distilleries so you can enjoy an authentic taste of Italy at home with friends and family.

Amaro in Italian means “bitter” or “little bitter”. Ariana Amaro is well balanced between bitter and sweet, with notes of orange and wild fennel. It works as an aperitif; to open the appetite prior to a meal, digestif; after dinner to aid digestion, on the rocks, neat, and it works great in a cocktail. 

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Warming notes of wild fennel and spice.
Taste: Wild fennel, Calabrian citrus and warming spices.
Finish: A warm blend of flavours, backed by a slow-burn citrus.

Amaro vs. Amaretto: Qual è la differenza? (What's the Difference?)

Amaro and Amaretto are both Italian liqueurs, but they couldn't be more different in taste and purpose!

• Amaro (meaning "bitter" in Italian) is a herbal liqueur made from a mix of botanicals, roots, and spices. It has a complex, bittersweet flavour and is often enjoyed as a digestif after a meal.

• Amaretto, on the other hand, is a sweet, almond-flavoured liqueur with a touch of cherry or apricot. It's perfect for cocktails or desserts.

Both are delightful in their own ways. Why not try them both?
