Cellini Crema di Limoncello

Crema di Limoncello is the creamy sister of classic Limoncello — less spicy, but more velvety in the mouth and with a rounded sweetness that brings the lemon aroma to the fore.

The Cellini Crema di Limoncello from Herzberger GmbH follows this southern Italian style principle: lemon peel macerate meets a cream base, resulting in a liqueur with a soft texture and a fruity-fresh character. In the glass, it displays a light, milky-yellow color. The nose offers fresh lemon peel and a hint of vanilla from the cream component. On the palate, it is creamy with a distinct citrus note and a pleasant sweetness without heaviness, finishing with a short, fresh aftertaste.

Best served ice-cold from the freezer — traditionally as a digestif in small grappa glasses. It also works well as a base for a Limoncello Spritz (with Prosecco and a splash of soda) or over vanilla ice cream. In the kitchen, it pairs well with lemon tart, panna cotta, or a simple fruit salad with berries.

Serving suggestion: well chilled, straight from the freezer — freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
