Luxardo Apricot has been produced by the Luxardo family since 1935 when the city of Rome organized a competition amongst Italian spirits producers, looking for a new liqueur which should represent the capital city. Luxardo Apricot won the first prize and was awarded with the title “Liquore della Lupa” (Liqueur of the Roman she-wolf), now its trademark. Obtained from the infusion of apricots’ pulp in sugar beet alcohol, Luxardo Apricot is very rich in taste with mild cinnamon spice and light almond finish. Brilliantly suited to use in cocktails it can also be enjoyed neat or over ice as an after-dinner drink.
