Campari
Zedda Piras - Red Myrtle cl70
Description | Passion, experience and care are the authentic and genuine values that guide Mirto Zedda Piras, a house founded in 1854 , produced in Sardinia in Alghero following the traditional recipe : only water, sugar, alcohol and wild Sardinian myrtle berries. In November, the myrtle harvest begins, a centuries-old tradition, unique and precious – like its land of origin, Sardinia – that is renewed year after year to create Mirto Zedda Piras. The typical Sardinian liqueur is obtained exclusively from fresh Sardinian myrtle berries, picked by expert hands that know the inaccessible places of the island, where this spontaneous shrub grows, whose fruit ripens inland and along the sunny and ventilated coasts of the island exclusively on wild shrubs. Produced in Alghero, Mirto Zedda Piras takes its intriguing character from the wild berries picked when ripe and left to macerate in alcohol. The small blue-purple fruits, which dot the Sardinian landscape with the arrival of winter, characterize its color and taste. Thus is born a genuine liqueur, with an intense color and the characteristic scent of Mediterranean scrub. Perfect at the end of a meal, it expresses its characteristics best when served chilled and in slightly frosted glasses. Ideal for any occasion, it brings with it the flavour and aromas of Sardinia spread by the Mistral wind and recalls the carefree atmosphere of dinners with friends. MIRTO ZEDDA PIRAS IS BORN. |
