Amaro Montenegro Liqueur
Italian Amaro (Bologna, Italy) | Blend of 40 Botanicals | 23% ABV (46 Proof) | 750mL
Process & Profile
Amaro Montenegro Liqueur is one of Italy’s most beloved herbal liqueurs, handcrafted in Bologna since 1885. Its time-honored recipe blends 40 botanicals — including spices, herbs, roots, and citrus peels — sourced from around the world. The botanicals are divided into six aromatic notes and individually macerated, distilled, and blended before being balanced with pure water and sugar. The final step, known as the premio, involves adding a small batch of a secret micro-distillation that elevates the liqueur’s complexity and balance. Bottled at 23% ABV (46 proof), Amaro Montenegro is celebrated for its versatility, smooth texture, and harmonious balance of bitter and sweet — a hallmark of the Italian amaro tradition.
