Limoncello
When asked about Lella's Limoncello, our distiller, Carlo, often reminisces about visiting Rome where his Aunt Gabriella, Zia Lella as she was known, often tinkered with liquor infusions. Fond memories of her limoncello inspired Carlo to adapt the recipe and give it an American spin by utilizing our moonshine as the base spirit. Thus, Lella's Limoncello was born! A light-tasting, lightly colored, and not all too sweet limoncello born in a Roman kitchen and perfected between two generations and two continents.
38% ABV, 76 Proof, 750 ml
Lella's Limoncello
Less sugar, higher proof, inspired by a traditional Italian family recipe.
This Limoncello is made to honor and remember Carlo’s Aunt Gabriella or Zia Lella as she was affectionately called.
Carlo has fond memories of Zia Lella’s kitchen in Rome, seeing all the different infusions, with chamomile, rosemary, gold leaf and of course lemon zests that she made to share with her friends and family. Zia Lella would be happy to hear how so many people visiting White Dog Distilling have said that Lella's Limoncello is the best they have ever had.
We raise our glass to you Zia Lella! Salute!
