A Recipe Written in Botanicals
Amaro Santoni is a blend of 34 botanicals, each selected for its aromatic and sensory contribution. Rhubarb root, iris flower, and olive leaves are among the most distinctive ingredients, working alongside spices, roots, and aromatic plants to create a profile that is at once rich and approachable. The base is pure spring water from Chianciano Terme, a renowned thermal spa town in the province of Siena, one of Italy’s most pristine water sources.
The result is a liqueur with a veiled ruby color and orange reflections, an intense and expansive nose of spice and roots, and a palate that moves from delicate floral and herbal notes toward bright citrus and a clean, pleasantly bitter finish.
Light Enough for Any Moment
At 16% Vol., Amaro Santoni occupies a rare space in the spirits world: complex enough to command attention, light enough to be enjoyed at any point in the day or evening. It works beautifully on its own over ice, as the centerpiece of a cocktail, or as the spirit of choice for a bartender looking to build something unexpected. Mixologists around the world have embraced it precisely because its character is clear but never rigid.

Amaro Santoni at Italian Aperitif Week
The aperitivo hour has always been a ritual of connection, a pause, a pleasure, a reason to gather. Amaro Santoni was designed for exactly this moment. Its origins in the Dolce Vita era, its Florentine soul, and its modern sensibility make it the ideal companion for an event that brings the best of Italian culture to the streets of New York.
When a bartender at one of our participating locations reaches for Amaro Santoni, they are reaching for 60 years of Italian craft, a handful of Tuscan hills, and the particular joy of a drink made with genuine care.
