Rudi Carraro, Global Brand Ambassador at Gruppo Montenegro – comments ‘At Amaro Montenegro we constantly strive to celebrate the human spirit and the natural desire to enjoy friendship and conviviality with those around us. The Vero Bartender Competition is our way of encouraging bartenders to celebrate the joy of sharing, through their cocktail creations, whilst recognising those bartenders who create and support their communities by pushing the boundaries of flavour and true creativity.’
Celebrated as the world’s “Best Liqueur”* having been perfected in 1885, Amaro Montenegro features 40 botanicals from around the globe, which were selected, extracted and mixed according to a secret recipe by explorer, herbalist and young rebel genius Stanislao Cobianchi. Amber in colour, with a complex aroma, Amaro Montenegro is pleasantly balanced between sweet and bitter and best enjoyed straight, on the rocks, with tonic or as the dominant modifier in classic and innovative cocktails.
