Product Description
Produced in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, its origins date back more than 300 years to the presence of early Christian monks living in the hills of the area.
Their skills in fine food and drink would have included the art of distilling, especially the use of the wild hazelnuts and other local ingredients to create a liqueur on which Frangelico is based today.
Its name is also part of the same local legend – an abbreviation of Fra. Angelico, a hermit monk believed to have inhabited the magnificent Piedmont hills during the 17th century.
The Frangelico bottle is an immediate reminder of this distinctive history. Shaped like a monk’s habit with a traditional rope belt around its waist, it ensures authenticity and quality that links the past right through to the present day.
