Distillation and production

Distillation and production

Production method

Botanicals are macerated individually at different alcohol strengths and infused (stirred daily) for periods ranging from 20 to 45 days; individual infusions are then pressed, blended, diluted with water and sugar and subjected to paper filtration. Some products undergo a short rest in small oak barrels.

Distillation

No distillation is indicated: products are made from botanical infusions and macerations; they are not distillates in the classic sense.

Ageing

Short resting period after blending; some products (e.g. Canto Amaro) receive brief aging in small oak barrels.

Producer history Sirene

The line was created by Elisa Carta, an herbalist/sommelier who revisited family recipes and reintroduced them in an artisanal key, drawing inspiration from the botanicals and legends of the Baia delle Sirene on Lake Garda. Products have also been distributed through operators such as Rinaldi 1957 and several specialized retailers internationally.

Production philosophy

Artisanal, terroir-driven production: to enhance local botanicals (especially Monte Baldo/Lake Garda), use individually prepared natural infusions, avoid additives or colorants and offer products designed both for neat consumption and for use in cocktails.

Territory

Lake Garda (Baia delle Sirene), Monte Baldo — Veneto region, Italy
