History and know-how

Ausano Ramazzotti created the formula for Ramazzotti in his small Milan laboratory in 1815. His creation, a sweet, plant-based liqueur, proved an immediate success. The recipe contains neither colouring nor artificial additives and is still secret today. Its most distinctive flavours are the Sicilian sweet oranges, bitter oranges from Curaçao, star anise and cardamom.
