Founded in 1821, Luxardo is one of Italy’s most historic and revered distilleries. Known for its exquisite cherry-based spirits, the Sangue Morlacco is a rich cherry liqueur made from the juice of Luxardo marasca cherries, a variety cultivated exclusively by the company.
“Sangue Morlacco” (meaning “Morlach Blood”) was named by Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio and pays homage to the liqueur's deep red color and bold character. With a full-bodied mouthfeel and a luscious cherry profile, it’s perfect for cocktails or sipping neat.
