Florio Amaro is flavoured with a secret recipe of 13 herbs, including roots, citrus peel and spices, infused in alcohol and aged for at least 18 months in oak casks.

Florio Amaro is so named due to its originally being reserved for the crews of the Florio shipping company, who in the 19th century sailed along transoceanic routes.
