Disaronno Originale Amaretto (75cl, 28%)

Disaronno Originale is an Italian amaretto liqueur from Saronno, with a bright amber colour and a sweet almond character. Despite its almond-forward aroma, it is made from apricot kernel oil infused with herbs and fruits, steeped in alcohol. The result is a smooth, moderately sweet liqueur with a marzipan-like almond note. It is 28% ABV and works neat or over ice as an after-dinner pour, in cocktails such as the Amaretto Sour and the Godfather, and in coffee, baking and desserts. The brand's notes give sweet almond and marzipan with apricot and warm spice on the nose, a moderately full-bodied, sweet palate of almond, vanilla and stone fruit, and a smooth, lingering finish with a nutty, slightly bitter almond close.
