Lazzaroni Ferro-China Liqueur 750ml

Italy's Tonic Bitter — Iron, Cinchona, and Centuries of Tradition

Ferro-China is one of Italy's most traditional and distinctive bitter liqueurs — a style that combines iron (ferro) with cinchona bark (china) and a blend of herbs to create a tonic bitter that was historically consumed for its perceived health benefits. Lazzaroni's expression, crafted in Saronno since 1851, honors this tradition with a complex, deeply aromatic bitter that is as fascinating to explore as it is satisfying to drink.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Complex and aromatic. Cinchona bark and iron-rich botanicals lead with a herbal depth and a subtle sweetness.
• Palate: Bold and complex. Quinine-driven bitterness from the cinchona is balanced by herbal complexity and a gentle sweetness that keeps it approachable.
• Finish: Long and warming. Bitter herbs and a tonic character linger with a satisfying, traditional close.
