Amarischia Nonna Marisa Liquorice Liqueur – 5 cl

For a liquorice lover, the flavour is more than a background note. In Amarischia Nonna Marisa, it takes centre stage: a very dark colour, intense aroma and a taste that lingers. The 5 cl miniature gives you enough to try the liqueur in a glass and explore a dessert pairing without opening a full-sized bottle.

Product details

A liqueur with a clear identity

Amarischia presents Nonna Marisa as a characterful liquorice speciality associated with a family recipe. It is a focused choice for someone who enjoys liquorice, rather than a general introduction to every herbal flavour in the range. Its identity differs from both a multi-herb amaro and a sweet cream liqueur. If you prefer citrus or a gentler flavour, the range offers other directions to explore.

Chill it and pour a little

The producer recommends serving this liqueur cold. A small pour lets you enjoy its lingering flavour without rushing. At 21% ABV, it is lower in strength than some other Amarischia amaro products, but it is still an alcoholic drink. Use a small glass for tasting; if you are adding it to a dessert, a teaspoon makes it easier to control the quantity.

Try it with lemon or ginger ice cream

Amarischia suggests lemon or ginger ice cream, two ways to place the liquorice flavour alongside a different aromatic character. Begin with just a little liqueur, then taste before adding more. A plain ice cream is another serving suggestion if you want to focus on the liquorice itself. The addition remains alcoholic and the finished dessert is intended for adults.

The liquorice statement on the label

The available label states that the drink contains liquorice and advises people with hypertension to avoid excessive consumption. Keep that information in mind when using the liqueur in a dessert as well as when serving it in a glass. This liquorice warning is separate from an allergen declaration; the two should not be treated as interchangeable.

Serving and pairing ideas

• After dinner: a small chilled pour, served neat.
• Over lemon ice cream: one of the producer’s pairing suggestions.
• With ginger ice cream: for a more distinctive aromatic combination.
• As a small gift: for an adult who particularly enjoys liquorice.

The 5 cl miniature

The 5 cl miniature holds 50 ml, making it a practical way to try this product before choosing a larger bottle. Add it to a tasting selection, pair it with other Amarischia miniatures or give it as a small gift for an adult. The bottle size is not a recommended serving size: pour only what you need and close the bottle afterwards. For a wedding favour, add your own ribbon or packaging while keeping the label information readable.

Storage

Keep the bottle tightly closed and away from direct sunlight and heat. Chill as needed for serving. After opening, follow the instructions on the bottle; no verified information is available to specify an exact storage period.
