Created 450 years ago. We know she was beautiful, young and widowed. But did she create the original Amaretto di Soronno as a thank you for her portrait? A portrait Bernardino Luini made of her in 1525? History has lost the answers - even her name - leaving nothing but Luini's stunning fresco in the Sanctuary of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Soronno Italy. And the liqueur with the distinctive bouquet and taste of almonds. As you sip it tonight after a fine meal, with coffee - or even before dinner in a cocktail - we know you'll come to appreciate not only it's unique intriguing flavour, but also its history.
The original : Amaretto di Saronno
