Description: The port of Genova was one of the first ports in Europe in the 17th century where coffee arrived from the Arabian Peninsula. Arabian coffee was also known as the 'wine of Arabia'. The inhabitants roasted and prepared the drink that was also used as a medicine. Even today, Genova is one of the most important coffee ports in Europe. Caffè S. Maria al Monte Elixir is an exquisite liqueur based on an infusion of fine coffee varieties roasted according to the espresso tradition that encapsulates all the passion of Italian coffee.

Description: The history of the bitter Petrus goes back two centuries, in the Netherlands. It was the Dutch Company of the East Indies that opened the course far away exotic countries. The Dutch ships, that in the 1600s were the most powerful fleet in Europe, imported herbs and spices virtually unknown to Europeans. Those medicinal herbs, with penetrating scents and ancient virtues, and those spices, always used to prepare healthy infusions, allowed Mr. Petrus Boonekamp to create in 1777, in a small workshop of Leidschendam, the bitter that bears his name. And even today the term Boonekamp, in much of West- Central Europe is synonymous of digestive bitter.

Many herbs enter the composition of the bitter Petrus. Among others, Galanga (Alpina Officinarum). Galanga is a perennial herb native of China and India. The parts of the plant used are the rhizomes extracted from the soil in autumn, washed and dried. It is widely used in pharmacies as aromatic eupeptic and carminative. Its smell is pleasant and its taste bitter-spicy type.

Petrus has an intense and bright mahogany color, it reveals herbaceous and floral aromas, with hints of withered rose, cherry in spirit and cocoa bean. The taste is decidedly bitter, balanced and soft, in a context of great structure and balance that make it pleasantly persistent. It ends on bitter returns of gentian and rhubarb, with a slight sprint of ginger.

Product Details: Farina Amarone della Valpolicella is a high-quality Italian wine produced in the Valpolicella region of northeastern Italy, specifically in the Veneto region. 

Grape Varieties: Amarone is typically made from a blend of several grape varieties, including Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and sometimes other local grapes like Molinara and Oseleta. The Corvina grape is often the predominant variety.

Production Method: One of the most distinctive features of this Amarone wine is the production process known as "appassimento." In this process, harvested grapes are dried for an extended period, usually several months, to concentrate their sugars and flavours. This raisining process results in a wine with higher alcohol content, rich flavours, and a deep color.

Flavor Profile: Farina Amarone della Valpolicella is known for its bold and complex flavour profile. It often exhibits notes of dried dark fruits such as cherries, plums, and raisins, along with hints of spices, tobacco, chocolate, and sometimes a touch of vanilla. The wine is full-bodied with a velvety texture and a long, lingering finish.
