Adriatico
Adriatico Amaretto Liqueur 28% 70cl
- Details
Using hand-picked almonds from Puglia - the 'boot heel' of Italy - Adriatico is a decidedly different Amaretto, in that it uses much less sugar (in the form of cane syrup) than most other Amarettos, making it distinctly drier than one might expect. The use of sea salt from the Adriatic sea enhances that dry note, adding a saline element which works wonderfully with the almond notes throughout.
On the nose it's quite deceptive, with a classic marzipan feel. But as soon as the liquid hits the tongue you know you're in for something new - the salt tang on the lips and the nuttier edge come through.
It might be a shock for those used to much more sugary Amaretto liqueurs, but I love this - although I will admit this is probably better as a cocktail Amaretto than a straight sipper for most people. It works fantastically well with Cognac in a Godfather, and lifts an Espresso Martini to a whole new level. The bottle is absolutely beautiful too!
