Disaronno is a delectable apricot kernel-infused liqueur of outstanding character. Romanticised legend has it that Disaronno Originale originated in the 1500's, when Bernardino Luini took a lover and muse in the form of a local inn-keeper to shape his inspiration for a painting of the Madonna. As a gift of gratitude she presented him with a delicate amber liquid and thus the story of Amaretto begins. Disaronno Amaretto retains the original amaretto recipe from the ancient tale, infusing alcohol, burnt sugar and 17 herbs and spices in delicate apricot kernel oil. Italian style finds its expression in this elusive liqueur; an inherently flawless choice for amaretto cocktails, desserts, pancakes, sauces and meat dishes.

There is more than one colourful anecdote behind the inspiration for the brand. One reports that Bosch, while out on business, received a little monkey as a gift which he then selected as the trademark for the brand. Commentators have noted that the monkey's face appears to be based on Charles Darwin himself - a nod to the debate at that time about the theory of evolution. The diamond pattern on the bottle, often copied by other brands, was inspired by a perfume bottle Bosch bought in Paris as a present for his wife.
