Disaronno - Velvet Cream Liqueur is crafted from a base of neutral spirit or fortified wine, infused with an array of herbs, spices, fruits, and botanicals. Recipes are closely guarded and rely on precise maceration techniques to extract character.

Production involves blending extracts with sweetening agents and adjusting alcohol levels for stability. Aging may take place in stainless steel or oak, depending on the tradition, to harmonize flavors.

The result is a spirit designed for versatility in cocktails and for neat enjoyment, showcasing both heritage and craftsmanship.

Disaronno Velvet Cream Liqueur is a luxurious and indulgent spirit, offering a rich and velvety twist on the classic Amaretto profile. On the nose, it presents an alluring aroma of sweet almond and marzipan, characteristic of Disaronno, beautifully softened and enriched by creamy vanilla, delicate floral hints, and a touch of warm caramel. A subtle nutty complexity, often reminiscent of toasted hazelnuts, adds depth. The palate is exceptionally smooth, luscious, and creamy, delivering a decadent fusion of sweet almond, vanilla bean, and a rich, dairy-like creaminess. Notes of toasted sugar, a hint of dark chocolate, and a subtle fruitiness, possibly apricot, emerge, creating a harmonious and sophisticated flavor profile. The sweetness is well-balanced by a gentle warmth from the alcohol, leading to a long, velvety finish that coats the palate with lingering almond and vanilla cream.
This opulent cream liqueur is a true dessert in itself, perfect for sipping and savoring. It is best enjoyed chilled, either neat, over ice, or as a decadent addition to coffee or hot chocolate. For food pairings, lean into its dessert-like qualities. It makes a magnificent accompaniment to dark chocolate desserts, such as flourless chocolate cake, chocolate lava cake, or a rich chocolate mousse, where its almond and vanilla notes can enhance the chocolate. It also pairs wonderfully with classic Italian desserts like tiramisu, panna cotta, or almond biscotti. Consider drizzling it over vanilla ice cream for an instant upgrade, or serving it with a simple fruit tart featuring berries or stone fruits for a delightful contrast. It can also be a luxurious ingredient in dessert cocktails, adding creamy texture and a distinctive almond flavor.

Disaronno is a world-renowned Italian liqueur, famous for its signature amaretto, which has been crafted since 1525. Produced in Saronno, Italy, Disaronno is made from a secret blend of herbs, fruits, and almonds (without containing any actual nuts), resulting in a smooth, sweet, and aromatic liqueur with a distinctive almond-like flavor. The brand emphasizes tradition, craftsmanship, and elegance, maintaining its iconic square bottle and rich amber color as symbols of heritage. Disaronno is celebrated for its versatility, enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as a key ingredient in classic cocktails like the Amaretto Sour, and appeals to consumers seeking an authentic, luxurious Italian liqueur with both history and sophistication.
