Solerno - Blood Orange Liqueur (750ml)

On the sun-drenched slopes of Sicily’s Mt. Etna grows an extraordinary citrus: the blood orange. Locally, it is known as arancia rossa for the deep crimson hue of its flesh. It is a natural jewel of the Mediterranean—the deeper the color, the bolder the flavor contained within. There are only a few, short months during the Mediterranean winter when the nighttime temperature drops to the perfect point, and the arancia rossa bursts with an intense, bittersweet and almost spicy flavor. It is then and only then that the blood orange is ready for picking.

Celebrating the original and naturally intense flavor of Sicilian blood oranges

Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur collects the fragrant essential oils of Sicily’s blood oranges—picked at the peak of their season, winter through early spring—and marries them with other ingredients, including lemon and orange, to create an elegant and refined liqueur.  Vibrant, delicate and complex, Solerno is a true expression of Italian Radiance captured in a gracefully formed bottle, evocative of stylish Italian design.

Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur brings a bright and fresh flavor to modern interpretations of classic cocktails, original creations, and effortless Italian-inspired aperitifs.

Tasting Notes

The nose bursts with whole-fruit blood orange, orange blossom and a hint of bright and zesty lemon. The palate yields a velvety sweetness, balancing tartness, and the full body of an 80 proof spirit with a long, dry finish.
