The dandelion, (literally ‘lion’s tooth’) was always thought to possess magical powers. The Ancient Greeks believed the seeds were dust thrown up by the chariot of Helios, the sun god. Dandelion leaves nourished Theseus for thirty days before his victory over the Minotaur.
This complex amaro blends dandelion with other Alpine herbs such as gentian and genepy. It is sweetened with a pinch of muscovado sugar.
On the nose, it presents a strong herbal bouquet with notes of bitter orange, licorice, and gentian root. The palate is equally robust, with a distinctive bitterness that gradually gives way to a delightful sweetness.
