Vicario Olive Leaf Liqueur

Vicario Olive Leaf Liqueur is one of the most ancient and historically resonant bottles in the entire lineup — a spirit with roots that stretch back to classical antiquity and a literary pedigree most liqueurs can only dream of. Olive leaf liqueur has an ancient history — it was given as a tonic to visitors of a famous Umbrian temple dedicated to Jupiter Apennine, and was even referenced in Dante's Divine Comedy, Paradise XXI, when St. Peter Damian described living on a diet of vegetables and olive liqueur in his monastery. Created using only fresh, tender emerging leaves from ancient olive trees estate-grown at Vicario's family farm at Villa Sant'Andrea in Cortona, Italy, then finished with a hint of lemon in South Carolina, this is a true farm-to-bottle amaro with genuine Italian terroir. The nose delivers heavy, indeterminate aromas with olive notes and lifting citrus and spices, while the palate is bittersweet and pleasing with a complex, lingering finish and a lightly fruity character. Delicate, versatile, and unlike anything else in your bar. Serve chilled in summer, at room temperature as a digestif, or warm with lemon in winter.
