Experience Details

We will meet in Piazza Duomo, the main square of Amalfi.

In the first part of the experience, I will test your knowledge about limoncello.

Once all doubts have been clarified, especially on the choice of alcohol and the recognition of a quality liqueur, I will explain the maceration, production and bottling process in detail. Later, I will show you how to taste it and at what temperature to serve it. After the initial tasting, a short historical paragraph will follow which will explain the origins of the famous "Amalfi gold".

Next, you will personally experience the production of my grandparents' original recipe. Finally, I will reveal some tips for your future experiences at home!

Please inform me of any food allergies.
