Artichoke Bitter

Artichoke Amaro Poerio – A Tribute to Mediterranean Tradition

The Artichoke Amaro Poerio is an artisanal digestive liqueur that arises from the union of the genuineness of the artichoke and the high quality of the production processes made in Italy. Refined and balanced, this amaro enhances the natural properties of cynarin, a substance that stimulates bile production and aids in the digestion of fats.

Made with a natural infusion of fresh artichokes and a selection of aromatic herbs, our Artichoke Amaro stands out for its intense yet balanced flavor: the pronounced bitterness of the artichoke perfectly combines with a slight sweet aftertaste, which gives harmony and roundness to the sip.

To ensure an authentic flavor and superior quality, we exclusively use artichokes grown using traditional methods in the fertile Sicilian countryside, selecting the finest varieties harvested at the right degree of ripeness. The infusion occurs through an artisanal process that preserves all the beneficial and aromatic properties of the plant, enriched with wild herbs typical of the Mediterranean region.

Our Artichoke Amaro is distinguished by an intense yet balanced flavor: the pronounced bitterness of the artichoke perfectly combines with a slight sweet aftertaste, which gives harmony and roundness to the sip. The result is a liqueur with a strong character, ideal to enjoy as a digestive after meals or in mixology to create sophisticated Mediterranean cocktails.

The careful processing and respect for the maceration times not only enhance the herbaceous and earthy notes but also preserve all the beneficial and purifying properties of the artichoke, giving the amaro a natural digestive vocation and an authentically Mediterranean style.

Artisanal production and selected ingredients

What makes the Amaro al Carciofo Poerio unique is the particular attention to the selection of ingredients and the processing. We use only the freshest hearts and stems of artichokes, handcrafted and left to macerate for a long time with selected aromatic herbs, sugar, and alcohol, according to a recipe that pays homage to Mediterranean tradition. The slow maceration – up to 90 days – allows for the extraction of all the aromatic notes and beneficial properties of the artichoke, thus enhancing its purifying and digestive virtues.

This process, combined with respect for traditional techniques, ensures a liqueur with an authentic taste, a complex aromatic profile, and a natural harmony between bitterness and roundness. Entirely crafted in Italy, the Amaro al Carciofo Poerio is the result of a passion for quality and respect for raw materials, offering a true tribute to the culture of good Mediterranean drinking.

A carefully calibrated wait: the maceration

One of the secrets that make the Amaro al Carciofo Poerio so unique lies in the patient maceration phase. To obtain the maximum from the beneficial and aromatic properties of the artichoke, hearts and stems are immersed in alcohol and left to rest for a full 90 days. This long wait, in line with authentic Sicilian traditions, allows the ingredients to fully release their intense aromas and to blend into a perfect balance between herbs, artichoke, and a slight note of caramel.

After maceration, the artisanal infusion is refined with selected aromatic herbs and a light sweetness, faithfully respecting the steps of a recipe passed down through time.
