Scarlet Orange Amaro - 2024

700 mL
Item # 53156

Frankly, having seen first-hand the truly mind-boggling amount of hand labor that went into making this batch, it is unbelievable that it doesn't cost three times as much. Scarlet Orange Amaro is produced using blood oranges sourced from a friend’s farm in Ehime Prefecture. Scarlet founder Tatsuya Motonaga and a team of seventy volunteers hand press fresh citrus, which is immediately transferred to stainless steel tanks to retain its vivacity while the orange peels and other botanicals are macerated in neutral spirit. The aromatized spirit is blended with the blood orange juice and then immediately bottled, capturing a full spectrum of sweet citrus flavors and earthy supporting botanicals. Additional botanicals include lemon balm, bramble leaves, ginger, and camellia flowers. Unreal taste. Very limited.

Staff Pick Notes

This is THE orange amaro and if you can grab a bottle, don't let it go. Why is it so special and so limited? Iseya Distillery, located in Sagamihara Japan, produces this amaro that tastes like creamsicle, the freshest orange of the season, and ginger candy all at the same time. 1,200 kilograms of farm-fresh blood oranges are peeled and hand-squeezed, while botanicals macerate in the neutral grain spirit. Both the peels and the juice are used, along with 15 additional botanicals, many of which are grown on a nearby farm. So much thought and care go into the products by Tatsuya Motonaga and his team at Scarlet! Try the orangey-est orange amaro alone to experience fresh citrus, lemon balm, spice, and florals - or mix it in a cocktail to instantly elevate and refresh.
