Production method

Product obtained by blending a base of brandy (acquavite di vino) with citrus infusions/distillates; the historic recipe also includes saffron for colouring. The commercial formulation includes sugar and water; some technical information indicates the use of colouring (caramel) to even out the colour.

Distillation

No detailed public technical description available; sources indicate the use of an aged brandy base combined with a citrus distillate/infusion.

Ageing

Commercial sources report that the brandy component is aged and that the product is finished with maturation in oak barrels to provide structure and golden reflections.

Producer history Aurum

The production of Aurum is historically tied to Pescara (Abruzzo). The commercial origin of the drink dates back to the 1920s; the name was chosen by Amedeo Pomilio on the suggestion of the poet Gabriele D'Annunzio. The historic factory building (ex-Aurum/Palazzo Pomilio) is still recognised as an emblematic site of local production.

Production philosophy

Aurum presents itself as a regional speciality that combines an aged brandy base with citrus infusions and distillates, emphasising local tradition and a rounded, golden aromatic profile typical of dessert/digestif liqueurs.

Territory
