Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur 375mL Luxardo

INFO

Luxardo Maraschino Originale is still produced according to
a special formula created by Girolamo Luxardo in 1821. When Luxardo
marasca cherries are harvested at the beginning of every summer, they
are put in alcoholic infusion in larch-wood vats together with some leaves
and branches of the same trees for up to three years. When ready, both
the liquid and the solid parts are distilled in traditional copper pot stills,
separating the heart from heads and tails. Only the heart of the distillate
is then allowed to mature in ash-wood vats. The last process consists in
transforming the distillate in liqueur by adding a simple syrup of water
and sugar lowering the ABV to 32%. Crystal clear in colour, the aroma is
typical of marasca cherry distillate with strong alcohol spirit and roasted
nuttiness, while the taste results smooth but sharp at the same time with
hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and orange marmalade. The tall green
bottle with its red cap is still hand-plaited in straw within the company
and resembles the Maraschino bottles produced in Zara in the early days,
where the straw was placed in order to prevent damage during transportation. Luxardo Maraschino Originale can be enjoyed in many classic
cocktails or neat as an after dinner drink. It is also ideal over fruits such as
strawberries, pineapples, oranges etc. or as a flavor in confectionary and
ice creams.
