What is bergamot?

 The fruit of the bergamot tree, a member of the rutaceae family, bergamot is a citrus fruit with a smooth and thick skin. Bergamot is mainly grown in the south of Italy, in Calabria. Its flesh is too acidic and too bitter to be eaten raw. In fact, what makes this citrus rich is its unique fragrance. This is the reason why almost all of the fruits harvested from November to February are used for the production of essential oil.

How is bergamot used?

 Very present in perfumery and cosmetics, bergamot is also found in the kitchen. It is particularly popular with pastry chefs. Frequently used in Asian cuisine, it also goes well with fish or seafood. It is also in the composition of Earl Grey tea. Finally, bergamot has naturally conquered the world of spirits, again thanks to its uniqueness.

Bergamot liqueur, how is it consumed?

 Lovers can consume it alone, very fresh, to exhale all the flavors. While the most greedy make it an ally of choice for the preparation of their cakes. While adventurous spirits will not hesitate to revisit their favorite cocktail recipes.
