An expert herbalist and masterful creator of exquisite liqueurs. For years, Roberto Vignale was the guardian of the recipe for Genoa’s most famous Amaro, but the vicissitudes of life unjustly forced him to lose control of the product that had been in his family for over a century.
Using the finest alcohol base currently produced in Italy and with the support of one of the country’s leading distilleries, Amaro Vignale is once again available and has been renamed Amaro Carruggi.
The Canneto il Lungo version, named after a lane in Genoa’s historic centre, is the herbalist’s new blend comprising 33 herbs that lend it depth and a pleasant character, offering great complexity and aromatic persistence with every sip. It has a higher alcohol content, 40% compared to the 24% of the original version, with strong herbal notes that will delight you at the end of a meal.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
