This lemon liqueur is produced exclusively from lemons and grapes grown on the estate. Only fragrant lemon peels are used, infused with estate-distilled grape grappa. The peels are slowly macerated for several months in metal tanks, allowing a pure and expressive citrus character to emerge. A light oily film that may appear on the surface is a natural sign of the high essential oil content found in the lemon peels.
The liqueur displays an olive-green tone and a naturally cloudy appearance, as it is unfiltered. Both aroma and palate are driven by fresh lemon notes, resulting in a vibrant and refreshing profile.
Serving suggestion:
Best served at 10–12 °C as a digestif.
A Family Legacy from the Heart of Sicily
Sisters Rita and Giusy Russo nurture a unique heritage – a lemon grove planted by their great-grandfather Francesco nearly 150 years ago near Palermo, Sicily. In this sun-drenched, fragrant orchard, exceptional liqueurs are born, reflecting deep family traditions and a strong connection to the land.
Limoncello – The Pride of Sicily
It was the Russo family who, in the 1990s, became the first in Sicily to start producing Limoncello, a liqueur that has since become a true symbol of the island. Their innovative approach to this classic Italian drink has turned it into a favorite not only among tourists but also among gourmet enthusiasts worldwide.
Only Natural Ingredients – No Compromises
Rita and Giusy are firmly committed to natural quality: their liqueurs are made exclusively from fruits grown in their own lemon grove or from carefully selected, top-quality ingredients sourced from around the world – such as Ceylon cinnamon, premium chocolate from renowned producers, and other authentic additions.
Handcrafted with Distinctive Care
Each bottle of the Russo sisters’ liqueur is a small work of art. The liqueurs are unfiltered to preserve their full, natural flavor. Every label is applied by hand and decorated with dried herbs, giving each bottle an extra touch of charm and authenticity.
A Versatile Taste – From Cocktails to Desserts
These handcrafted liqueurs are perfect not only for mixing in cocktails but also for pairing with ice cream, desserts, or enjoying on their own as a refined digestif. Every sip is a journey to sun-soaked Sicily, where tradition, flavor, and craftsmanship come together.
