Amaro Montenegro 750ML

Italy's Celebrated Herbal Liqueur Crafted from 40 Secret Botanicals

Known across the globe as "The Spirit of the Virtuous," amaro montenegro has been an icon of Italian distilling since 1885. Created in Bologna, Italy by herbalist Stanislao Cobianchi and named in honor of Princess Elena of Montenegro, this award-winning amaro is masterfully crafted from a secret blend of 40 botanicals sourced across four continents.
