Here are the ingredients at the heart of the Petrone Limoncello Tradition
Limoncello is one of Italy's most iconic liqueurs, a symbol of the Mediterranean and the Campanian artisan tradition.
But what does limoncello contain and what makes it so special?
Our Limoncello is an artisanal product born from the passion of the Petrone Family since 1970. It is a 100% natural liqueur, made with carefully selected ingredients to offer an authentic sensory experience.
What ingredients does Petrone Limoncello contain?
Here are the ingredients of our limoncello that create the magical flavor of one of Campania's most characteristic liqueurs.
- Hydroalcoholic infusion and essential oils from the peel of Campania lemons from Mondragone (40%)
- Water
- Sugar
- Glucose
Why do we use lemons from Mondragone?
Petrone Limoncello is produced exclusively using lemons from Mondragone, an inland area of Caserta characterized by volcanic soils.
This particular type of soil, rich in minerals, gives the lemons an intense aroma, a thick skin, and a high concentration of essential oils, all fundamental elements for obtaining a superior quality infusion.
Why is Petrone Limoncello a unique product?
Ours is an artisanal Campanian liqueur that follows a traditional production method. Each bottle encapsulates the freshness of the Mediterranean, with an alcohol content of 33% and a velvety texture that enhances the intense lemon flavor.
Furthermore, the product's quality guarantee lies in the exclusive use of natural ingredients, making it a pure and authentic limoncello, perfect as a digestive after meals or for creating sophisticated cocktails.
