LAZZARONI NOCINO

Lazzaroni Nocino is a classic Italian liqueur made from walnuts, and now available in the US      market.  Walnuts have a supernatural history in Italy.  An ancient walnut tree in Benevento was said to be the spot where witches went to cast spells and newly married couples in ancient Rome were showered with the nuts to bring them luck and prosperity. Nocino walnut liqueur also has a history of use in Europe as an herbal   medicine.

Lazzaroni Nocino has complex and nutty flavors, coming from the walnuts, balanced perfectly with other botanicals and sugar.  It is traditionally  consumed as an after-dinner drink like Amaretto or Amaro, but it is also an excellent substitute     modifier in cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan.

Lazzaroni Ferro China

What is Ferro-China… An Italian tonic first made famous in the last decades of the 1800s by a Pharmacist from Milan named Bisleri and a Doctor from Rome named Baliva. Both men combined the pharmaceutical remedies of the bark of china (chinchona, used to make quinine) and iron citrate, an iron based salt, made from citric acid and iron sulfate, into a drinkable therapeutic, bitter tonic. Ferro-China is part of the Italian Amaro category, but lighter in color, body and alcohol than most other digestive, Amaro drinks.

Ferro-China also enjoyed an export boom to the US market during Prohibition. It was considered a pharmaceutical product and could be prescribed by Doctors. In Italy, a teaspoon a day was given by mothers to their children at that time to aid their growth.

Lazzaroni first started the production of Ferro-China in the late 1800s but discontinued production about 30 years ago. The family recipe was recreated this year.

Today, Lazzaroni Ferro-China joins Lazzaroni Fernet and Lazzaroni Amaro in the portfolio. Claims are no longer made for any medical or growth benefits, and a prescription is no longer need to obtain historic Lazzaroni Ferro-China.

With a herbal mocha coffee, and roasted chestnut aroma and a hint of vanilla with delicate spice overtone, this liqueur is traditionally enjoyed over ice as an aperitif, as a digestif after dinner and as a modifier in cocktails.
