From the marine depths of the ancient city of Sinuessa
After 12 months of submersion, our Elixir Falernum has returned to the surface, ready to surprise us with its intense aroma, amplified and more structured by underwater aging.
While the first submersion yielded data validated by the Department of Agriculture of the University of Naples Federico II, this time we received definitive scientific confirmation of the organoleptic changes the product undergoes with underwater aging.
An underwater micro-world
The unique microclimate generated on the seabed seems to create optimal conditions for the maturation of liqueurs, similar to what already happens with wines, thanks to several factors: constant temperature, indirect light, moderate and filtered by water, the movement of currents and waves that cradle the bottles, and complete shelter from lunar phases.
Underwater aging is a completely new technique in the world of spirits, and the first liqueur to undergo this process was our Elixir Falernum. Early research conducted by universities and independent laboratories indicates promising results, highlighting several benefits for the taste and quality of spirits.

Elixir Falernum 25% Vol. - Aged at sea 12 months [2nd Edition]
Elixir Falernum, a liqueur aged in barriques with 3-year-old brandy and further refined for 12 months in the sea at a depth of 10m
An aging process in the sea for an unprecedented taste, Elixir Falernum rests for 12 months at a depth of 10 meters, cradled by currents and immersed in the mystery of the ancient Roman city of Sinuessa, a fascinating experience that gives the liqueur inimitable organoleptic characteristics.
The marine depths, combined with constant temperature and the absence of direct light and oxygen, have created an ideal microclimate for the aging of Elixir Falernum; the bottles, cradled by the movement of the waves, undergo a slow and uniform maturation process, similar to that of fine wines.
The strength of the sea in every vigorous sip
Just a drop of Elixir Falernum is enough to be captivated by an intense black cherry red color, a prelude to an unparalleled sensory adventure. A meditation liqueur for moments of relaxation and unwinding, a boundless journey that for 12 months was preserved among the waves of an ancient sea.
Closing your eyes, the nose is captivated by an immense intoxicating aroma of almond, wild blackberry, blueberry, and small red fruits, but the best is reserved for the palate, a sweet and enveloping taste, with intense and deep sensations that conclude in a balanced and sweet finish
