The Lazzaroni family have been crafting this famous liqueur since 1851, and are considered by many to be the originators of the style. The family also operates one of Italy's most renowned bakeries - their Amaretto cookies are made using a secret recipe that dates to 1718. The Lazzaroni Amaretto is the only version of this iconic liqueur that incorporates an infusion of these famous cookies. You will encounter delectable notes of marzipan, dried fruit and roasted almond, along with spice tones. It's no secret: this will be smooth and velvety with great complexity. |
