About this spirit

Disaronno's sense of effortless, sociable style and Italian chic make it an ideal liqueur for any occasion. The original amaretto since 1525 Disaronno's warm, sophisticated taste has a lineage dating back to one of the most romantic periods in Italian history - the Renaissance. In 1525, the artist Bernardino Luini - a student of the Leonardo Da Vinci School of Art - was commissioned to paint a fresco of the Madonna in Saronno, Italy.
