Lemon liqueur / Limontejo, 500ml

The Limontejo lemon liqueur combines the traditional art of Italian limoncello with the sun-ripened lemons of the Alentejo. Crafted according to an old family recipe, it is the first limoncello produced in Portugal, born from a shared passion for good food, conviviality, and Mediterranean joy.

Behind Limontejo are Italian-born Francesco Catucci and his Portuguese brother-in-law Miguel. Francesco, who fell in love with Portugal and its people, brought his family's traditional recipe with him. Inspired by the "ricetta della mamma" – his mother's recipe – the two developed a handcrafted lemon liqueur that harmoniously blends Italian tradition with Portuguese ingredients. The family estate in the Alentejo, with its aromatic lemons, finally turned this dream into reality.
The lovingly designed label, depicting the journey from Puglia, Italy, to the sunny Alentejo, is truly beautiful.

Carefully selected lemons from the Alentejo are used for Limontejo. Their fresh and intense aroma gives the liqueur its unmistakable character. The result is a pleasantly sweet, fruity liqueur with a vibrant citrus note and Mediterranean freshness.

Served as ice-cold as possible, Limontejo is a classic digestif, but is also excellent as an aperitif, over ice, or as a sophisticated ingredient for cocktails and desserts. Its harmonious balance of sweetness and freshness makes it a versatile companion for social moments with family and friends.
