Toasted. Velvety. Irresistibly indulgent.
Bordiga Elisir Nocciola is an indulgent celebration of Italy’s most beloved nut — the hazelnut — transformed into a silky, aromatic liqueur by the master distillers of Bordiga in Piedmont. Using locally sourced hazelnuts from the region’s rolling hills, renowned for their exceptional flavour and aroma, this elisir captures the true essence of Italian craftsmanship. Each sip offers a warm embrace of roasted nuts, vanilla, and gentle sweetness, wrapped in the smooth texture that defines Bordiga’s artisanal style.
Through meticulous roasting and slow maceration, the natural oils and aromas of the hazelnuts are carefully extracted to create a liqueur that is rich yet balanced, indulgent yet elegant. It’s a tribute to the tradition of Piedmontese confectionery — where quality, patience, and attention to detail transform simple ingredients into something extraordinary. The result is a spirit that’s deeply comforting and versatile, perfect for sipping neat, drizzling over desserts, or elevating after-dinner cocktails.
For Irish liqueur enthusiasts, Bordiga Elisir Nocciola offers a luxurious taste of northern Italy’s sweet heritage. It brings a sense of warmth and refinement to every occasion, blending effortlessly into Irish tastes and moments of indulgence. Whether enjoyed by the fire after dinner or shared with friends as a digestif, this hazelnut liqueur is a delicious bridge between Italian elegance and Irish appreciation for fine spirits.
