100 ml / 25% abv Behind our distillery stands the Besimauda: the ascent of its slopes is a tradition and one of the best times to reach its summit is late spring, with clear days, cool temperatures and wonderful blooms of the deep-blue gentians, the alpine flowers whose bitterness is well known. Made with gentian flowers, (sweet) orange peels, herbs, spices and an infusion of hibiscus flowers. Aperitif, digestive and the essential ingredient of a good Negroni Alpino.
