Amaro Montenegro 1885

Amaro Montenegro is a traditional amaro distilled in Bologna, Italy. Made from a secret blend of 40 botanicals, including vanilla, orange peels and eucalyptus, this amaro was first produced by Stanislao Cobianchi in 1885 and was originally called Elisivir Lungavita. In 1896, it was renamed Amaro Montenegro, after Princess Elena of Montenegro who married Crown Prince Victor Emmanuel, the future King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy. Its production takes place in the factory of San Lazzaro di Savena of Montenegro Srl.

Cobianchi travelled from continent to continent collecting 40 rinds, woods, seeds, rhizomes, flowers, fruits, citrus peels, roots, stems and leaves.

Amaro Montenegro is the result of a process that has been passed down through generations, unchanged since 1885. The Master Herbalist oversees the entire production process, just as Cobianchi once did.
