ABOUT

Bold from the first pour, Amaro Nonino Quintessentia delivers remarkable depth without overwhelming the palate. Crafted in Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, it builds on the Nonino family's original 1933 recipe while incorporating aged grape distillate matured in Nevers, Limousin, and ex-Sherry barriques, creating an amaro that feels both refined and vividly expressive. 

Bright citrus lifts every sip. Layers of alpine herbs, bitter botanicals, warm spice, and delicate sweetness unfold gradually, revealing a graceful balance that has made this bottle a modern classic behind the bar and at the dinner table. It's equally compelling served neat, over ice with an orange slice, or as the signature ingredient in cocktails like the Paper Plane.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Fresh orange peel leads the way. Floral herbs, honey, baking spice, gentle vanilla, saffron, and subtle alpine botanicals rise with every swirl.

Palate: Silky and layered. Candied citrus mingles with caramel, toasted spice, gentle herbal bitterness, dried flowers, and soft grape character from the aged distillate.

Finish: Long, warming, and elegantly bittersweet. Lingering notes of orange zest, gentian, spice, oak, and delicate herbs fade with impressive finesse.

FOOD PAIRING

Amaro Nonino shines alongside aged Parmigiano Reggiano, prosciutto, roasted almonds, dark chocolate, orange-infused desserts, tiramisu, biscotti, and hazelnut cake. It also complements roasted duck, pork tenderloin, and rich mushroom dishes, where its citrus and herbal complexity brings refreshing contrast.
