On the palate, fresh tones of ripe citrus fruits are balanced with a light bitter and floral spice before giving way to a complex and long lasting finish. To enhance the delicate flavours of the botanicals, Italicus is best enjoyed 50/50 with prosecco over ice and garnished with three green olives to balance the floral aromas with a touch of saltiness.

Review: Broken glass shards when opening bottle - I have purchased this liqueur previously (not from desertcart) and it is a delicious staple in my drinks cabinet. Over ice its amazing. Purchased in the summer and when opening it recently there was grinding whilst removing the top and when looking closely I could see lots and lots of little shards of glass around the neck of the bottle and that would have fallen into the liquid. Obviously this makes it undrinkable as even a tiny piece of glass can rupture something internally, Do not purchase from desertcart who I assume have bashed the bottles around - unfortunately the return period has gone over now for me.
