Today there are actually two bottles to show off! 🍸
Limoncello is an Italian lemon-flavored liqueur! This is a very easy drinking liqueur when chilled with a syrupy mouthfeel and a delicate lemony flavor! The recommended way to drink this one is slowly sipping to enjoy the profile, in a limoncello glass. Despite being easy to drink this one can be deceptively strong usually ranging between 18%-30% ABV! If you give this one a try, be sure to let us know what you think!
