In memory of grandfather Antonio, the Nonino family celebrates a return to its origins with Amaro Nonino Quintessentia by creating a Riserva for the first time in 2021, which undergoes more than 24 months of natural ageing in oak barriques and small casks. Antonio Nonino, the third generation of the distiller family, used to store Amaro Carnia in small wooden barrels; steel was prohibitively expensive at the time. Through contact with the oak, the liqueur was enriched with new notes and aromas. Although there are no clear regulations for the maturation of liqueurs, in line with the Nonino philosophy, maturation takes place in the dedicated cellar, sealed and under constant supervision by the customs and monopoly office.

The result is extraordinary: Quintessentia becomes softer, the citrus notes move into the background and it gains elegance, which is expressed in numerous subtle and warm notes. At the beginning, there are autumnal scents of brushwood and moss that give way to the scent of sultanas and passito. There are also balsamic hints, the scent of flamed orange and caramelised vanilla and great persistence and intensity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Amber in colour, bright and well flowing. Clear notes of sultanas, rhubarb, thyme, bay leaf, medicinal herbs, coffee, vanilla, cinnamon and kola nut. The palate again shows the flavours of bay leaf and sweet spices, it is soft, sweet and finishes fresh and well balanced." Falstaff
