Regular Price...$28.99
Genziana Fernanda was inspired by a recent trip to Italy when Skip and his wife met up with his mother’s favorite cousin Fernanda. After a typically large and delicious mid-day meal, Fernanda offered them some of the homemade wine-based gentian liqueur that she makes every year. Skip was blown away with the bitter, earthy, and citrusy notes and a seed was planted in his head: he needed to make something like this. Fernanda shared her basic process and Skip then developed a recipe around that process and around the luscious Viognier that he was able to get from one of his favorite wineries, Lullaby.
This first edition of Genziana Fernanda (using Fernanda’s on hand script on the label) was made in collaboration with one of Seattle’s best restaurants and wine bars, L’Oursin. It is round and fruity and luscious with a complex nutty and citrus notes and the earthy nose and medium bitter finish you would expect from a gentian liqueur.
The original inspiration.

What is gentian?
Gentian is a flowering shrub found high in the mountains of Europe. The very bitter root of the gentian shrub has been used for centuries in digestive medicine and forms the bitter notes that you find in so many amari and other bitter liqueurs throughout Europe and beyond (including Amorino).
