Nonino Quintessentia Amaro is a premium Italian herbal liqueur crafted by the historic Nonino Distillery in Friuli, Italy. Unlike most amari which use a neutral spirit base, this distinctive amaro is made from a base of grappa infused with a carefully selected blend of botanicals, herbs, spices, and fruits from the Friuli region, including bitter orange, rhubarb, tamarind, and gentian.

The flavor profile offers a harmonious balance of bitter and sweet notes with the lively freshness of citrus, followed by soft warmth of dried fruits and subtle floral undertones. You'll discover notes of orange, honey, vanilla, licorice, allspice, mango, pepper, and cocoa. The grappa base adds unique depth with a touch of earthy richness. At 35% alcohol by volume, it delivers both potency and approachability.

The finish is smooth and elegant with lingering herbal notes that provide gentle bitterness followed by delicate sweetness. The balance between herbal, fruity, and woody characteristics creates a clean yet satisfying aftertaste. Perfect as a digestif served neat or over ice, or as an exceptional ingredient in elevated cocktails like the Paper Plane or Black Manhattan.
