Silvio Carta Paper Elderflower Liqueur is a delicate and aromatic spirit that captures the essence of Sardinia’s wild elderflowers. Crafted by the Silvio Carta distillery on the Sinis Peninsula, this small-batch liqueur celebrates the island's rich botanical heritage. The elderflowers are hand-harvested at their peak, ensuring a natural sweetness and floral complexity that shines through in every sip.
From the first pour, Paper Elderflower envelops the senses with its subtle yet inviting aromas of sweet elderflower. The palate unfolds with a rich mouthfeel, showcasing orange liqueur notes and a whisper of herbal complexity. Its smooth balance of floral sweetness and a hint of citrus makes it perfect for sipping neat, over ice, or mixing into creative cocktails. For Irish enthusiasts, it offers a unique and refined addition to any collection, bringing a touch of Mediterranean elegance to your home.
