Bottega Elixir Amaro is the synthesis of a thousand years of Italian Amaro tradition and the creativity and passion of a Veneto house that has dedicated itself to the liquorist’s art for generations. A blend of approximately 30 botanicals — alpine herbs, flowers, spices, and berries including gentian, absinthe, lemon balm, juniper, star anise, mountain pine, nettle, elderflower, thyme, mint, blackberry, raspberry, and currant — crafted using traditional extraction and maceration techniques evolved to enhance the particular character of each essence. Fresh with a strong personality, intense and persistent notes, and the complex, structured flavour that represents the meeting point between tradition and innovation.
Appearance
Deep amber — the rich, inviting colour of an Amaro crafted from approximately 30 botanicals using traditional extraction and maceration techniques, with the depth and warmth that Bottega’s generations of liquorist expertise deliver.
Aroma
Fragrant and characteristic — rich with strong notes of alpine herbs and the delicate notes of undergrowth, reminiscent of musk, blueberries, and blackberries. The complex, layered bouquet of 30 botanicals in harmony, with the freshness and personality that alpine herbs and Veneto craft produce.
Palate
Characterised by the freshness of wild herbs and the balance between mint, pleasingly bitter sensations from yarrow, and soft sensations from chamomile — complex, structured, and immediately distinctive. The meeting point between tradition and innovation in every sip.
Serving Suggestion
Perfect after a meal, served fresh or over ice with an orange zest — or excellent in cocktails and long drinks. Serve at 5–8°C in a tumbler. The classic Italian digestivo serve, elevated by 30 botanicals and a thousand years of tradition.
