Artisanal and transparent production: use of fresh ingredients, no additives (no preservatives, colorants, caramel or added natural flavorings) and attention to authenticity and the preservation of aromas through cold macerations.
Territory
Caltagirone, Sicily (Italy)
Awards and recognition

Production method
Cold maceration and infusion of fresh herbs and spices for several weeks; separation of solid parts, filtration with gauze and manual bottling and labeling.
