Disaronno Wears Diesel

Limited Edition Disaronno Wears Diesel Bottle

I have to admit, that when it comes to cocktails, I usually opt for rum, vodka or a delicious Scotch. But, recently I became reacquainted with the classic Italian liqueur, Disaronno. Its characteristic almond flavor captured my attention, and made we wonder why it’s been so long since I’ve had any in my liquor cabinet.

This time around I realized that it is a sophisticated flavor that pairs well with so many things – delicious in espresso, soothing when served on the rocks, and delightful when used in a Mule.

The legend of Disaronno arose from a simple gesture of kindness, dating back to the Renaissance when a local innkeeper, who was chosen by artist Bernardino Luini to portray Madonna for the commissioned fresco entitled, Madonna of the Miracles in Saronno. As a mark of her gratitude, she prepared a special gift for the artist — a flask full of an amber liqueur, fragrant and delicate. 

The history of giving continues with the Disaronno brand. The distinctive Disaronno bottle is wrapped in a camouflage denim pattern, as part of the “Disaronno wears Diesel” campaign.

Through this project, Disaronno supports the Only The Brave Foundation, Diesel’s parent company’s philanthropic arm. The Foundation’s mission is to rebalance social inequality and contribute to the sustainable development of less advantaged areas and people throughout the world.

Check out the Disaronno website for the ‘official’ DISARONNO Wears Diesel cocktail, which marries this classic Italian Liqueur with Jamaica rum overproof. Sounds delicious, but I’m a Moscow Mule fan, so I thought I’d give the Disaronno Mule a try.
