Amari are traditionally enjoyed after a meal to support digestion. In the hills above Lake Garda, where the local diet centers on fish and vegetables, a lighter, more moderate after-dinner elixir is the tradition. Canto Amaro fits this role beautifully.
Medium in bitterness, Canto Amaro balances herbal and citrus elements with finesse. Bitterness comes from thistle and gentian, softened by bright Lake Garda citrus and rounded by the sweetness of vanilla. Timut pepper and ginger add lift and energy, bringing aromatic notes reminiscent of pink grapefruit and passionfruit. The texture is silky and integrated, with a harmonious, lingering finish.
The name Canto Amaro recalls the sirens’ song—seductive, layered, and impossible to ignore. Enjoy it chilled or at room temperature, served neat with a slice of lemon, lime, or grapefruit. It is equally compelling in classic cocktails, as a refined bitter component, or paired with vermouths for aromatic depth.
Primary Botanicals: Rose hips, lemon, thistle, Gentiana lutea, vanilla bean, timut pepper (similar to Sichuan pepper), cacao beans, coffee beans, rabarbaro
Botanical Source: Local herbs cultivated organically on Monte Baldo at 800 meters, timut pepper from Asia, vanilla from Madagascar
