About
Limoncino Bottega is a “limoncello”, a traditional Italian liqueur, dating back to the end of the nineteenth century. It is produced from an infusion of “Femminello” lemon peel. This cultivar is widespread in Italy and characterized by a peel with a thin grain and high-quality essential oils. This variety of lemon is called “Femminello” because of the fertility of the plant, which flowers all year round. The lemons are grown naturally and picked at the peak of ripeness, washed and peeled by hand, removing the white part (bitter) and only selecting the yellow peel which is rich in essential oils. The lemon peels are infused in alcohol for about 30 days. This allows the extraction of the aromatic and coloring substances. The liquid is then separated from the peel. Finally, sugar and high-quality grappa is added, making this Limoncino unique and unmistakable.

Big deal fir real!
Being 2023, it only makes sense that we humans have managed to improvise some pretty creative ways to keep everyone happy - including the environment. Take vegans for example - nowadays you can confidently invite them to a bring-and-braai and trust that they'll come along with some fake type of meat that looks almost like the real deal. Or fashion models - those fur coats? Probably not real fur, and just as well. Leave the foxes to the woods and trash cans of the UK.
Come the festive season and we South Africans don't really have a whole lot of options in terms of forests we can raid for real live trees to decorate. Again, just as well, we don't want to be wishing our families a happy holiday from a holding cell. Stay out of trouble with our deal on luxurious pop-up Christmas trees from Tinsel & Timber. We've got plenty of other festive goodies to fill your cart - and stockings - with!
