Vicario Quina Liqueur
Vicario Quina Liqueur
Description
Vicario Quina Liquéur is produced by Renato Vicario and Janette Wesley using organically grown botanicals from their farms in Tuscany, Italy and South Carolina, USA. A quina liqueur built around cinchona bark — the source of quinine, the bittering agent in tonic water and traditional aperitifs — combined with other herbs and botanicals at 25% ABV.
Cinchona bark gives quina-style liqueurs their characteristic bitter, slightly medicinal character. Vicario’s farm-to-bottle approach — growing and sourcing botanicals from their own organic farms on both sides of the Atlantic — distinguishes this from commercial liqueur producers who source commodity botanicals. The trans-Atlantic farming operation also means seasonal and regional variation in the botanical character.
