Bols Amaretto Liquer is a gold-brown liqueur. Amaretto, which originated in Italy, is famous for its sweet almond aroma and nutty caramel flavour. A distillation of carefully selected ingredients creates this exquisite liqueur.
Amaretto liqueur is said to have been invented by the woman who modeled for renaissance-era italian painter, bernardino luini, in 1525. Luini, a follower of leonardo da vinci’s art style, chose the mother of a local child to be his model for the madonna. In return she gave him ringraziarlo – a gift, a drink distilled from almonds.
Bols amaretto is essential for classic drinks such as the amaretto sour, and also for more modern drinks like the alabama slammer and screaming orgasm.
