Product notes

It is a creamy liqueur, pleasantly sweet and with a moderate alcohol content, characterized by an intense aroma of Gianduia chocolate. This was created in Piedmont, in 1806, when the high cost of cocoa inspired local pastry chefs to replace part of it with toasted grounded nuts. This gave origin to an elegant and intense chocolate, with a typical bouquet of cocoa and nuts. These hints are also present in Gianduia Bottega, a cream with a velvety sweetness which satisfies even the most demanding palates. With a final touch of grappa, Gianduia Bottega gains a particular aromaticity, making it unique and unmistakable.

Tasting notes

Color and Appearance Brown with cream hues. Bouquet Intense aromas of cocoa and nut, typical of Gianduia chocolate. Taste Soft, velvety, with a distinctive and appealing taste, on the palate it is characterized by an intense and persistent aromaticity balanced with the sweetness of milk cream.
