Angeleno Amaro 750ml
DescriptionExperience the California spirit captured in a bottle with Angeleno Amaro, Los Angeles' own interpretation of Italian bitter liqueur tradition. This locally crafted amaro reflects LA's unique cultural fusion, incorporating both traditional Italian botanicals and ingredients that speak to Southern California's diverse landscape. From citrus groves to coastal herbs, Angeleno creates a sense of place that's unmistakably Los Angeles while honoring amaro's bitter-sweet heritage.
Deep amber color evokes California sunsets. The nose offers an intriguing blend of Old World meets New—traditional gentian root bitterness mingles with bright California citrus, while local herbs add unique character. Notes of orange peel, grapefruit zest, and lemon verbena provide brightness, balanced by earthy roots, warm baking spices, and a hint of eucalyptus that speaks to LA's landscape. On the palate, Angeleno delivers balanced bitter-sweet flavors with a distinctly Californian twist—citrus forward yet grounded by traditional amaro bitterness, with layers of herbs, spices, and subtle honey sweetness.
What makes Angeleno special is its authentic Los Angeles character within the amaro framework. Rather than simply copying Italian recipes, this amaro incorporates botanicals that reflect Southern California's unique terroir and cultural diversity. Local citrus, herbs from the coastal mountains, and spices reflecting LA's multicultural heritage create an amaro that could only come from the City of Angels. This sense of place combined with quality craftsmanship has made it a favorite in LA's cocktail scene.
Excellent neat, on the rocks with an orange twist, or in cocktails where its bright, citrus-forward profile shines. Perfect in spritzes or as a modifier in citrus-based cocktails. For those seeking American craft spirits that honor tradition while expressing local character, Angeleno Amaro offers a taste of Los Angeles' creative spirit in bitter-sweet form.
