RATAFIÁ CHERRIES 70cl

The writer Angelo Brofferio, in The Italian Traditions (1848), reports the legend of a black cherry liqueur which, in the year 1000, saved the population of Andorno from the plague, making it possible to marry the daughter of the inventor of this liqueur and the son of the his fiercest enemy. Peace between the two families was thus re-established, and the phrase that was pronounced to seal the union between the two young people, et sic res rata fiat, gave the name to this magical liqueur. In 1700 the apothecary Pietro Rappis began the artisan production; in 1880 Giovanni Rapa, founder of the liqueur factory of the same name, picked up the tradition that still continues respecting the ancient recipes. Prepared with the juice of fine black cherries, sugar and aromas, it is particularly appreciated for its sweet flavor. A slight alcohol content makes it a liqueur that everyone likes.
