Zedda Piras Red Myrtle is a celebration of the rich Sardinian traditions, a liqueur made from the berries of wild myrtle harvested in the lush Mediterranean scrub of the island. Packaged in a 70cl bottle, this spirit is known for its deep ruby red color and an aromatic bouquet that seduces from the first encounter.

The production of Zedda Piras Red Myrtle follows a traditional artisan method that respects the maceration times of the myrtle berries, thus allowing for the extraction of the maximum aromatic essences and flavors. After harvesting, the berries are left to macerate in alcohol for at least thirty days, a process during which the liqueur acquires its characteristic dark color and intense taste.

On the palate, Zedda Piras Red Myrtle is distinguished by its balanced sweetness, with notes of berries, aromatic herbs, and a slight resinous touch that recalls the Mediterranean flora. Its finish is soft and lingering, leaving a pleasant sensation of freshness.

Typically served cold as a digestive after meals, Red Myrtle is also excellent as a base for innovative cocktails, offering a Sardinian twist to many classic preparations. Moreover, it is ideal to accompany chocolate desserts or aged cheeses, enhancing their flavors.

Zedda Piras' approach to the production of its myrtle testifies to a commitment to quality and tradition, making it a true gem for lovers of aromatic and deep liqueurs. Zedda Piras Red Myrtle is not just a liqueur, but a sensory journey into the ancient traditions and enchanting landscapes of Sardinia.
