Espresso, Coffee Liqueur, Bottega
Coffee liqueur has a long history that date backs to the time of the Unification of Italy. With intense aromas and a distinctive taste, it has always met with approval by consumers and it is one of the most popular and highly rated liqueurs. Espresso Bottega is inspired by this long-standing tradition and thanks to the careful selection of the primary ingredients and their expert blending, it is a sophisticated, intriguing and inviting drink.
Coffee, renowned for its antioxidant properties, is rich in nutrients and has a stimulating and energising effect. Espresso Bottega is produced exclusively from the Sidamo and Djimmah varieties of Arabica coffee, grown in Ethiopia.
With an ethereal essence, this liqueur exudes delicate and fruity aromas of peach and apricots, showcasing the distinct character of Ethiopian coffee. As the scent unfolds, it transforms into an intense mocha fragrance, leaving a subtle trace of chocolate in its wake.
Upon sipping, the coffee caresses the palate with a profound and enduring mocha aroma, accompanied by a harmonious sweetness that beautifully complements the gentle green undertones reminiscent of the Djimmah variety.
Best savoured as a post-meal indulgence to tantalize the taste buds, this coffee liqueur can be enjoyed neat or with ice. It also lends itself as an excellent ingredient for crafting tantalizing cocktails. Serve it alongside coffee desserts or dessert biscuits to enhance their flavours, or add a hint of "alcohol" to elevate your tiramisu to new heights.
Bottega
Rosina Zambon was a strong-willed and enterprising lady, she was born in Arborea in Sardinia, the daughter of Venetian immigrants who had settled on the island in the 1930's following the land reclamation projects of the Facist era. In the 1960's, the family returned to the Veneto region and Rosina started to work for a distillery in the Conegliano area. Here she met Aldo Bottega who became her husband. Together with a business partner, in 1967 they started their entrepreneurial adventure by taking over Distilleria Sartor. Ten years later, in 1977, they founded Distilleria Bottega, giving their name to a business that absorbed them both completely.
In 1983 after the premature death of her husband, Rosina found herself at a crossroads, but she did not lose heart. With courage and hard work, together with her 19-year-old son Sandro, she decided to keep on down the same road, albeit littered with difficulties. Very soon, her younger children Barbara and Stefano also became an integral part of what at the time was a small, family-run firm. All of them together, over the years, have contributed to the firm's constant and progressive growth, transforming Distilleria Bottega into a sturdy business of outstanding quality and innovation.
With the Alexander and Bottega brands, Rosina Zambon Bottega, known to most as Rosy, helped introduce grappa to variouscelebrities around the world to help build trends and influence consumer habits. This has worked very well for the business and their products are now known globally for their distinctive presentation and top reputation.
