Mint Liqueur - Ferrero
 
The discovery of an ancient recipe gave rise to the idea of producing, according to the traditional method, a drink with strong digestive power whose name could only be "Ferrero Mint" in honor of the family's centenary history. Wise and expert craftsmen still skillfully mix pure alcohol, raw sugar, water and mint extract in the right proportions to make the final product soft and homogeneous and give it a fresh, thirst-quenching and pleasantly digestive flavour.

The Distillery: Ferrero Andrea returned to his father's family's town of origin in 2014, savoring ancient flavors and warm atmospheres. In the meeting with the elderly farmers of the area, facilitated by the last remaining seventy-year-old uncle, he rediscovers the origins of the family and decides to recover the exceptional history of those lands where over the centuries peasant activity has been highly concentrated in the cultivation of plants medicinal products and in particular mint (almost all of the excellent national production comes from an area that has just over 3,000 inhabitants!). The complex process of cultivating the plant and the subsequent extraction of the essence cannot ignore the presence of a particular microclimate and some specific morphological characteristics of the soil present only in these areas. The Po river passed over the land, now cultivated, until the 16th century.
