Distiller Notes
As coffee lovers, Faretti sets out to produce a spirit perfect for espresso martinis that is also wonderful on its own. They selected the finest coffee for Faretti Espresso, including Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. The Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia is renowned for flavorful coffee beans which are grown at a relatively high altitude that make a deep-bodied brew with distinctively floral and fruity overtones.
First prepared by 13th century Italian monks as herbal medicines and elixirs, Liqueurs are distilled spirits that have been combined with flavoring agents. A range of herbs, spices, nuts, fruits and flowers can be used, and a sweetener such as sugar or corn syrup is often added. While typically rather sweet, some examples are herbaceous or tart and pair exceptionally well with desserts or act as a delightful addition to cocktails.
