Whether sipped neat, poured over ice, or used in classic cocktails like the Amaretto Sour, Luxardo Amaretto di Saschira offers timeless Italian elegance — rich, smooth, and unmistakably Luxardo.
Luxardo Amaretto di Saschira is a refined expression of Italy’s beloved almond liqueur tradition — smooth, aromatic, and elegantly balanced. Produced by the historic Luxardo distillery in Veneto, this amaretto is celebrated for its delicate harmony of sweet almond, vanilla, and light spice, offering both authenticity and sophistication.
Unlike synthetic-style almond liqueurs, Luxardo Amaretto is made from natural almond distillate, giving it a rich yet clean profile. Its name, Saschira, evokes refinement and purity — perfectly capturing the liqueur’s polished, golden character.
Founded in 1821, Luxardo is one of Italy’s oldest and most respected liqueur houses. Family-owned for over two centuries, it is best known for its iconic Maraschino liqueur, but its Amaretto di Saschira stands among the finest in its class.
Produced in Torreglia, Veneto, Luxardo continues to uphold its historic commitment to traditional methods, natural ingredients, and artisanal precision. The result is a liqueur that embodies the Luxardo family’s dedication to Italian craftsmanship, heritage, and flavour integrity.
