Sips & Sites & Bites

When you’re looking for alcohol-free options when it comes to your celebrations and social lubrication, you still want flavor and style, right?

One staple in the cocktail world is Lucano, an Amaro that’s been around since 1894. And the maker recently entered the U.S. non-alcoholic beverage market with the launch of Amaro Lucano Non-Alcoholic.

Leonardo Vena, co-CEO of Lucano, said that the brand’s “foray into the world of non-alcoholic spirits is a testament to our commitment to innovation while providing exquisite options for all consumers.”

They’ve embraced the essence of Italy’s Mediterranean spirit, as Amaro Lucano NA retains the bright taste and complexity of its alcoholic counterpart, delivering botanical flavors and herbs that do not disappoint.

The Amaro maker noted that Lucano NA appears a light orange color, and on the nose, features aromas of myrtle, rosemary, and citrus blended with chamomile. 

On the palate, the bitter botanical elements are balanced with sweet and floral notes, creating a well-rounded profile that you could sip on its own as well as using for a base of many non-alcoholic cocktails.

Amaro Lucano NA, which has less than 0.5% alcohol by volume, can be used at a 1:1 ratio as a replacement in drinks that typically use spirits like gin or vodka. 

Amaro Lucano NA is available through select retailers, bars, and restaurants nationwide imported with Kobrand Wine & Spirits.
