San Pellegrino Chinotto (24 x 200mL), Italy.

Tasting Note

Chinotto is produced from the juice of the chinotto fruit, a small bitter citrus fruit from the chinotto tree, and herb extracts combined with sparkling mineral water. The chinotto is an essential flavor component of most Italian bitter amari digestifs, and of the popular Campari liqueur. One of its unique attributes is that it tastes bitter and sweet at the same time.

Geological Origin

S.Pellegrino mineral water flows from a thermal spring at the foot of a dolomite mountain wall towering above the Brembo river in the Italian Alps. The town of San Pellegrino Terme is located near Bergamo some 25 Kilometers northeast of Milan.

The geological and morphological structure of the San Pellegrino Terme area is highly favourable for the formation of the S.Pellegrino mineral water basin.

During this process, the water is mineralized through contact with the rocks and is heated by geothermal gradient until reaching the spring, where it has the balanced composition of S.Pellegrino mineral water.
