Amaro Montenegro is made with 40 botanicals using three processes: boiling, maceration, and distillation. Some of these botanicals include: sweet & bitter oranges, petite dried oranges, coriander seeds, marjoram, oregano, artemista blend, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.

After this process, 12 mother extracts are crafted. From there, the 12 extracts are blended to form “six aromatic notes” which are blended with alcohol, sugar, and water. Lastly, a seventh ingredient called the “premio” or “prize” is crafted from 5 botanicals which are micro-distilled. One liter of “premio” is used per 15,000 bottles.
