Our Limoncello is produced exclusively with the "Ovali di Sorrento", the lemons that take their name from their shape, which differ from other fruits in size and cultivation method.

The Sorrento Ovals are fruits that weigh no less than 85 grams each, with abundant yellow pulp and a highly acidic juice and therefore very rich in Vitamin C.

The Limone di Sorrento IGT also differs in its cultivation methodology. In fact, the particular production techniques, based on the cultivation of plants under "pagliarelle", straw mats placed on wooden support poles to cover the treetops, have the purpose of protecting the trees from the cold and wind and to delay their ripening.

Our Limoncello is produced according to the ancient family recipe, still following the artisan method today, to respect the times and scents of our land.

Water, alcohol and sugar are the basis for the maceration of only the "Ovali di Sorrento", the very famous lemons of the Sorrento peninsula. These are the only ingredients we use to perform the magic called Limoncello.
