Calabria and the Old Customs Warehouse were my life. Every day was like the first, we were engrossed in the work we loved more than anything else. We watched with<br />passion as Giocondo, who had a flair for everything in his trade, a man of few words and a master of life. The botanicals in his hands expressed extraordinary and<br />sometimes unthinkable things. The harvesting of bergamot and citron was a sacred time for him, and one that was sure to hold secrets. Jefferson was the most curious. He<br />would always try to follow him, most often surreptitiously, to try to understand what the secret was to producing such a natural and unique bergamot and citron liqueur. We<br />would leave, even before dawn, with his little cart and empty baskets to reach that magical place, even further south than the Old Customs Warehouse, four, maybe five<br />hours away. Once there, I was struck by the scents in that wonderful garden, something unique and magical. Giocondo with much patience and control began picking the<br />fruits one by one, which were sacred to him, he had a deep respect for the place. Once finished we set off for home, strangely enough I had the impression that it took much<br />less time than the outward journey, perhaps it was because of the desire to fulfil a dream. When we arrived, Giocondo wasted no time in starting the work. I still remember<br />his rough hands full of the essences of those wonderful fruits. He would complete the work by taking it to his 'Dark Room', no one could get in there. He always repeated:<br />'Silence!'. I always thought there was something secret and mysterious there. I hope that those who will be lucky enough to taste this liqueur will not seek explanations or<br />mathematical formulas, but will experience the passion, the emotions and the sacrifices of those who work the land every day to create this.<br /><br />Family heritage. So says the label. Products created by the skill of Maestro Giocondo, owner of the Vecchio Magazzino Doganale and expert in fruits, herbs and spices, but<br />above all adoptive father and guide of our characters. From his rough hands come Bergamotto Fantastico and Diamante Cedro, from a careful selection of the symbolic fruits<br />of Calabria: bergamot and cedar.<br />They enhance their character served cold and original in blends.<br /><br /><br /> L'Eredità di Famiglia <br />

He was a brilliant guy and full of surprises. We did not see him for months, when we suddenly discovered that he was in Paris at the Universal Exhibition for the inauguration<br />of the Eiffel Tower. During his stay in the French capital he stayed in the most famous district of Paris, Le Pigalle. There was the Moulin Rouge, an establishment where he<br />spent fantastic evenings. He met Madame Milu, a beautiful dancer... One look was enough to fall in love. It was a beautiful love story. Unknowingly, or perhaps out of<br />curiosity, I read some beautiful letters.<br /><br />Madame Milu Liqueur to Drink on Demand. A highly digestive, innovative and unique liqueur that traces and encapsulates the alchemy of the Italian style of liqueur<br />production from the 19th century to the present day. Its authentic recipe encompasses selected botanicals sourced from the Vecchio Magazzino Doganale, in Calabria. The<br />chamomile, mint and marjoram are still hand-picked and processed in separate infusions from fresh. Lemon balm, fennel seeds and wormwood processed by distillation<br />together with a secret composition of medicinal herbs, above all spaccapietra. The resinous part was initially obtained from the pine cones of Sila. Today, as luck would have<br />it, there are a few pine trees in our soil, which is wonderful. Neat, served chilled, it is incredibly evocative. In blending, it gives satisfaction in combination with rum or cognac.<br /><br />' Liquor to drink at the Need '<br />

Bordiga Amaro St. Hubertus 70 cl / 38°<br /><br />Why it is different<br /><br />Bordiga's Amaro Riserva St. Hubertus is counted among the best bitters in the Italian tradition. It represents the apotheosis of the distillery's artisan and zealous approach<br />to quality. The starting point is the highest quality herbs and flowers that are selected by expert mountaineers in the alpine landscape of the Cuneo valleys. Bordiga is a very<br />special distillery, specialising in rigour and respect for tradition. Its strong point is the medicinal alpine herbs still harvested by hand and dried at high altitudes by mountain<br />people in an uncontaminated environment. This means that the botanicals used are spontaneous, and therefore intrinsically organic. They are harvested without the aid of<br />engines, without pesticides, fertilisers or fungicides and, above all, with great attention to product quality and respect for the environment. Each production, just like in the<br />past, is totally conditioned by the changing seasons and climate. Once harvested, the herbs are meticulously checked by the Master distillers who deliver only the best for<br />processing.<br /><br />How I drink it<br />To be consumed neat, with or without ice.<br />
