Amaretto, a diminutive of the Italian word amaro meaning “bitter,” is a classic Italian liqueur known for its distinctive balance of bitterness and gentle sweetness. Giffard Amaretto liqueur expresses this traditional style with the characteristic flavours of apricot kernel and bitter almond. On the palate, pronounced almond notes appear first, followed by warm roasted nuances, leading to a smooth finish accented by subtle caramel tones.
