A Taste of Sunshine in a Glass. Two Luxury Limoncellos for the Global Tastemaker
Limoncello, the iconic Italian liqueur, has captured hearts worldwide with its vibrant flavor and cultural charm. Originating from the Amalfi Coast, this lemon-infused spirit is often associated with Mediterranean elegance and leisurely moments. Its popularity lies in its unique balance—sweet yet tart, bold yet refreshing. Infused with the zest of fresh lemons, limoncello bursts with citrusy intensity, delivering a smooth, tangy sip that leaves a lingering sweetness.
While limoncello is often associated with luxury and indulgence, it is not necessarily an exclusive beverage—its widespread appeal makes it both accessible and celebrated, either sipped from fine glassware or enjoyed casually. Although rooted in humble traditions, its premium ingredients and artisanal production often elevate it to a category of a refined collectible. Served chilled, it’s a favorite after-dinner digestif and a symbol of effortless sophistication, whether savored in a rustic Italian villa or a trendy urban bar. Once a regional specialty, limoncello has now become a globally recognized icon of good taste.
Here are two TasteTV selections that we think will please the Global Tastemaker in your or your life!
Limoncello di Sonoma
Prohibition Spirits, based in Sonoma, California, is known for its artisanal approach to crafting a wide range of beverages, including gins, brandies, amaros, and liqueurs. Among their offerings is a distinctive collection of “cellos,” including FigCello, OrangeCello, and their standout Limoncello di Sonoma. This small-batch limoncello is made using lemons sourced from local trees—sometimes even from generous neighbors—making it a sought-after and limited-release treat. Its fresh fruit flavor, combined with a robust yet smooth finish, makes it a favorite among fans who often find themselves craving “just another sip.” While some may mix it into cocktails like a Lemon Drop, its true brilliance shines when enjoyed straight.
Produced in a boutique micro-distillery, Limoncello di Sonoma is handcrafted using organic, locally sourced ingredients from small Northern California farmers. The artisans behind it honed their craft by studying traditional techniques on Italy’s Amalfi Coast but chose to create their own California-inspired twist by using grape-distilled brandy as the base instead of a grain-neutral spirit. This decision results in a refreshing limoncello with tasty lemon zest, balanced sweetness, and a softer alcohol profile. It’s a perfect expression of Sonoma’s local bounty and Prohibition Spirits’ dedication to quality.

Crafted by hand in small batches, Fabrizia Limoncello is a celebration of simplicity and quality. Made with just four ingredients—the zest of 100% Sicilian lemons, alcohol, sugar, and water—it’s a gluten-free, all-natural liqueur that embodies the vibrant flavors of southern Italy. The Italian lemons, grown in the rich volcanic soil beneath Mt. Etna and nurtured by warm Mediterranean winds, are renowned for their intense fragrance and unparalleled zest. Whether enjoyed on its own or as a sophisticated addition to cocktails, Fabrizia Limoncello delivers a taste of refinement and summer. Its updated bottle design, featuring a bright yellow cap and refreshed packaging and fonts, adds a touch of modern sophistication to its timeless charm.
Fabrizia’s commitment to quality is matched only by its dedication to giving back. Thanks to the support of loyal customers, the company has donated over $159,000 to organizations in need. These include Homes For Our Troops, the New Hampshire Hospitality Employee Relief Fund, the Crotched Mountain Foundation, and Brigid’s House of Hope, which provides safe spaces for survivors of human trafficking. Fabrizia has also supported the Pink Revolution Breast Cancer Alliance of New Hampshire, making every bottle a testament to their mission of community and compassion.
