Galliano

Italian herbal liqueur

Established towards the end of the 19th century, this yellow herbal liqueur was named after an Italian military hero. Its popularity abroad, other than among Italian expatriates, is of quite recent origin, and is a remarkable example of the fortunes of a brand being founded on a single mix —the Harvey Wallbanger. From this has sprung a huge demand for Galliano as a straight liqueur, in mixed drinks and for cooking.

Galliano

Galliano, also known as Liquore Galliano, is a sweet, yellow Italian herbal liqueur. It is flavored with various herbs, flowers and spices, including anise, licorice and vanilla, giving it an unique taste.

In 1986, a talented Italian distiller, Arturo Vaccari, by blending local and exotic ingredients such as star anise and vanilla, gave birth to a new spirit. He named his creation "Galliano" after Maggiore Galliano, hero of the East African wars at the end of the 19th century. Galliano Liquore soon travelled across the borders with the Italian pioneers heading for the gold rush in California. Thanks to its verstalityadn original taste. 70 proof.
