Vecchio Amaro del Capo is an Italian digestif that encapsulates the essence of Calabrian traditions. Produced by the Caffo Distillery, located in the picturesque area of Calabria, this amaro is a true tribute to the botanical richness of the region. With a capacity of 3 liters, this bottle is ideal for enthusiasts who appreciate high-quality artisanal beverages.

Distilled from an infusion of herbs, roots, flowers, and local fruits, many of which are harvested on the steep slopes of the Calabrian mountains, Vecchio Amaro del Capo offers a refined and complex flavor. Among the ingredients, we find bitter orange, licorice, chamomile, mint, and anise. Each of these components gives the liquor a unique note, creating a harmonious and lingering aftertaste.

Traditionally served cold, at about -20°C, Vecchio Amaro del Capo best reveals its aromatic qualities and its balanced flavor profile. The alcohol content is moderate, making this amaro suitable to be enjoyed neat after meals to aid digestion or as a base for innovative cocktails.

Vecchio Amaro del Capo is not only a liquid expression of the Calabrian flora but also a symbol of conviviality and tradition, suitable for any occasion of sharing and celebration. Its presentation in a large bottle makes it an excellent gift for spirits lovers or a significant addition to a connoisseur's collection.
