Romana Amaro is a classic Italian herbal liqueur, liquore classico, with a bittersweet, herb-forward profile of citrus and spice, bottled at 70 proof (35% ABV).
Romana is the Italian liqueur house best known for its Romana Sambuca, and its Amaro carries the same Colosseum emblem on a green-and-white label. It is crafted with a blend of 33 botanicals.
The amaro is built from a blend of herbs, roots and citrus, which give it a deep amber color and a balanced bittersweet character. It is designed to be sipped neat as a digestivo or used in cocktails.
Expect candied orange peel and warm spices on the nose with a light anise note, a bittersweet palate of herbs, citrus and honeyed sweetness, and a medium finish with subtle spice.
Romana Amaro is a classic after-dinner digestivo: serve it neat at room temperature or over a large ice cube with an orange twist. It also makes a fine aperitivo with soda water and a slice of orange, a rich Black Manhattan with rye and bitters, or a Negroni variation with gin and sweet vermouth. Pair it with dark chocolate, biscotti, aged cheeses or a hearty Italian meal. It is a great everyday amaro for the home bar and a thoughtful gift for fans of Italian bitters. For an easy aperitivo hour, pour it over ice with tonic and a rosemary sprig, and serve it alongside olives, salted almonds and cured meats; after dinner, a small glass with espresso is a classic Italian way to end a meal.
