About this product
The Refined Heart of Friuli.
Amaro Nonino Quintessentia is a masterpiece of Italian craftsmanship — a refined, amber-hued liqueur that embodies the soul of Friuli’s distilling tradition. Crafted by the Nonino family, masters of grappa since 1897, this amaro balances artisanal precision and natural harmony, offering a complex, velvety expression that feels both timeless and modern.
At its core lies Nonino’s celebrated grape distillate, a smooth, aromatic base enriched with a secret blend of alpine herbs, roots, and citrus peels. The result is a beautifully balanced bittersweet symphony — herbal and spicy, yet gentle enough to sip neat. Every bottle represents a family legacy of innovation, transforming the traditional amaro into an elegant spirit enjoyed by connoisseurs worldwide.
For discerning drinkers in Ireland, Amaro Nonino offers a sophisticated alternative to heavier digestifs. Whether savoured after dinner, poured over ice, or used in a Nonino Spritz or a contemporary Negroni, it brings a touch of Italian finesse to every glass.
Why we love it:
We love Amaro Nonino Quintessentia for its elegance, balance, and heritage. It captures the essence of Northern Italy — crisp mountain herbs, sunlit citrus, and warm spice — all wrapped in the signature smoothness of Nonino’s grape distillate. It’s a spirit that speaks of craftsmanship and sophistication, perfect for refined palates and lovers of Italian culture in Ireland.
