The Story Behind The Bottle

Habits Bottle Shop
Vecchio Amaro del Capo is a richly aromatic Italian amaro produced by the Caffo distillery in Calabria, made to an old family recipe that blends 29 different herbs, roots, and botanicals native to the region. It has become one of Italy's most popular amari, prized for its bold, herbal-forward character and deep amber color. On the nose, expect warm spice, dried orange peel, and herbal notes; the palate is complex and slightly sweet with layers of bitter herbs balanced by caramel-like richness, finishing long and warming. Traditionally, it's served ice-cold straight from the freezer as a digestif after a meal, which mellows its intensity and highlights its herbal sweetness. It also works well in cocktails as a substitute for other amari, adding depth to a Black Manhattan or a simple amaro spritz with prosecco and soda. Pair it with Italian desserts, espresso, or a cheese course to round out a meal in true Calabrian style. For anyone building out an amaro collection or looking to explore Italian digestifs beyond the more common brands, this bottle is well worth adding.
