Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur
Break away from the typical orange liqueur and switch to something different, something special. This premium liqueur made from Sicilian blood oranges will elevate your cocktails with its delicious, distinctive flavor. And it looks pretty stellar on the home bar cart, too.
"It is more complex than Cointreau and seems fresher than Grand Marnier, both of which have lost their standing to Solerno in my margaritas. A splash of it beautifully bolsters a mimosa as well." - Florence Fabricant, The New York Times
750ml & 80 Proof
| Tasting Notes |
Aromas of tart citrus and mouth-watering acidity. Sweet at first, followed by intense orange on the mid-palate. Complexity comes from the hint of the rich, wine-like bitterness that blood oranges are known for. The color is an all-natural clear.

| Production Notes |
Native Sicilian Sanguinello blood oranges grown on Mount Etna are picked at the peak of ripeness. They are processed at Agrumeria Coroleone, by a family that has been extracting essential oils from citrus for five generations.
Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur is actually a blend of three separate small-batch distillates, distilled in copper alembic stills. One is the "meat" of the oranges, one is the citrus peels, to capture the oils, and the third is a distillation of Sicilian lemons, to round out the liqueur and give it more structure. The result is this compelling, delightful liqueur that is a worth seeking out and keeping on hand for all your mix-at-home needs.

| Terroir | Sicily has long been known for having the best citrus-growing climate. The Sanguinello variety of orange tends to be small in size, with an intoxicating perfume, a deep crimson color, and a perfect sweet-sour-bitter balance. |
