  • AMARO MARASCHINO 70cl — This amaro is slowly infused with luxurious Italian maraschino cherries and the sweet, bitter peels from fresh oranges to create a delicious distillate of Amaro.
  • 35% ABV — Perfectly balanced with soft, fruity, and round Amaro qualities and the distinctive aroma and taste of maraschino cherry. Put this beautiful bottle on your back bar with the gin and vodka, rum and whisky offerings.
  • A PERFECT GIFT — Whether you’re looking for gifts for men, women, birthdays, or teachers, this beautiful bottle will line up nicely in anyone’s home and goes great with chocolate.
  • PROUDLY ITALIAN — Distilled in Piedmont and named for the long-horned mountain goats who roam the Alps near our home. This spirit, popular in the mountain resorts of the area, is best enjoyed over ice after a long day of skiing or a long day at work.
  • STAMBECCO AND COLA — If sipping amaro on the rocks isn’t for you, serve your maraschino amaro over ice and mixed with a cold cola, garnish with a cherry (what else) and sit back to enjoy the views.
  • ‎35 Percent by Volume

Leave the wine cellar and forget the still water and the beer, save the coffee for later and grab the cocktail glasses and ice. STAMBECCO AMARO MARASCHINO is the ideal home accessory for those who enjoy the finer things in life. Gin, wine, whisky, rum, vodka, beer, champagne, tequila, and tonic are all great, but entertain your guests with crisps or biscuits and a drink that’s smooth, rich, and unique. Offer them something they will call to ask about later when they are thinking about birthday gifts for her other than perfume. Serve early in the night mixed with Dr Pepper, or with after dinner digestives, or display alongside the Grenandine with the other Italian liqueurs. It’s a digestif but feel free to enjoy before dinner, because we certainly do.

Tasting Note

Jammy cherry, marzipan and brown sugar, leading into woody bitterness bringing balance on a dry finish.

Stambecco is Distilled by the Vergano Family at Torino Distillati in Northern Italy Moncalieri where Amaro began. The name Stambecco comes from the Italian word for the Ibex mountain goats that roam the Italian alps near the family Distillery.

A bittersweet Italian amaro infused with luxury Maraschino Cherries, bitter-Citrus peel and local mountain herbs.

At 35% alcohol, Stambecco is a perfectly balanced, smooth, fruity and rounded Amaro with a delicious and relaxed flavour.

Distilled in Italy with Marasca Cherries

Marasca cherries from Pecetto in Italy are soaked in alcohol, pressed in a traditional basket press and distilled in our copper pot still to bring out the delicious and rich flavour of the Italian fruit.

Vacuum distilled botanicals

The delicious cherry distillate is blended with 30 natural botanicals which have been vacuum distilled to preserve the flavour.

The natural ingredients include Sweet orange peel, Cinchona, Rhubarb and Saffron.

    Imagine the most bitter thing you've ever tasted, then times it by 100. That's what this tastes like.

    Bitter of an exaggeration in my opinion
    This is an amaro so if you like others I would recommend trying.

    Imagine it's not the most bitter thing you have tasted. Imagine it's like the description. Enjoy your day 🌞

    Sounds nice from the description.

    The name makes me think Amaretto but the colour looks like Aperol, which is it more like?

    It's definitely not as sweet as Amaretto but much stronger (35% abv Vs 11% abv) and much less herbal than Aperol.
    I think whether this Stambecco is enjoyable depends on people's taste palate, which can vary dramatically. I enjoy this Stambecco over crushed ice. I can taste a slight sweetness of cherry which very slightly offsets the bitterness, which I enjoy anyway. Conversely, my wife's palate can barely detect any sweetness in this drink and thinks it's overwhelmingly bitter which she doesn't enjoy.

    I ordered this past month & found it revoltingly bitter at first. But after a while of trying to mix it with different drinks I drank a bit on ice and it was actually not bad. I then splashed a small dash of apple juice with ice & it was very refreshing.

    Its definitely an acquired taste. And your taste buds may need time to adjust to the bitter sweet flavour.
