Barba-Turico is a production company linked to the world of fine bitters belonging to the Pellegrini Group. The production is inspired by those 19th century remedies sold by acrobats in the squares thanks to their alleged therapeutic properties, remedies that respected the precepts of the Kabbalah, which envisaged the use of 26 ingredients for the perfect balance of the elixir of life. Behind this project are years of research, analysis and study by Davide Monorchio, head of the Liqueurs and Distillates division of the Pellegrini Group, who consulted countless liquor manuals of the time to create Barba-Turico.
From the laborious work of Davide Monorchio of Barba-Turico, the ideal recipe was identified, which calls for the use of 26 botanicals from the Italian Alps carefully selected for their quality and processed with great care. These include Achillea millefolium, prized for its aromaticity and formerly used to treat states of anxiety and insomnia, peppermint, whose distinct balsamic vein aids digestion, and chamomile, with its sweet and delicate aromas and remarkable calming properties. The countless herbs, roots and spices are processed through a cold maceration process that allows the extraction of the purest aromas of these botanicals harvested in the Italian mountains.
This is how Barba-Turico's Amaro 'Elixir Balsamico', belonging to the 'Pellegrini Private Stock' line, is born. It is a liqueur with an Alpine soul that can be enjoyed neat at the end of a meal or with a few ice cubes to enhance its natural freshness and exceptional balsamic timbre.
