DISARONNO
O R I G I N A L E
The warm, sophisticated taste of DISARONNO has a
lineage dating back to one of the most romantic and
creative periods in Italian history - the Renaissance.
In 1525, the artist Bernardino Luini, a brilliant pupil
of Leonardo da Vinci - was commissioned to paint a
fresco of the Madonna of the Miracles in Saronno
(Madonna dei Miracoli in Saronno, where the Fresco
is still displayed today). To portray the Madonna, he
chose as his muse a beautiful local innkeeper. As a
mark of her gratitude she prepared for the artist a
special gift of a flask full of an amber liqueur.
That is how the legend of DISARONNO arose: from a
simple gesture of kindness and the unique handmade
combination of secret ingredients.
