Vergnano Maraschino Liqueur (75cl, 30%)

Vergnano Maraschino Liqueur is an Italian maraschino liqueur from Piedmont, made by Fratelli Vergnano 1865. It is copper-pot distilled from whole Marasca cherries crushed with their pits, with molasses alcohol and sugar, then filtered. At 30% ABV it is the higher-proof, drier-leaning of the house's liqueurs. The crushed pits give a hint of almond alongside the rich Marasca cherry flavour. It can be served neat or on the rocks, and is used in cocktails such as the Aviation, Last Word and Hemingway Daiquiri.
