Villa Massa Limoncello 500ml

500mL @ 30% abv

Villa Massa is real limoncello from Sorrento, Italy. Reportedly it is the best-selling lemon liqueur in Italy, so that s promising.

The slightly greenish liqueur (you can even get a sense of this in the photo) is largely transparent, with some modest cloudiness, typical of real limoncello. There s a fresh lemon nose here, with touches of lime. These both carry over to the body the lime is particularly evident along with ample sweetness, but none of it is overblown the way some limoncellos can be. All in all it s quite a simple digestif, its fresh citrus notes finding a wonderful balance between sweet and sour.
