Pallini Limoncello

Pallini Limoncello is a class act from start to savory finish. The liqueur features a true-to-fruit hue with the opacity of homemade lemonade. It has a featherweight body and a satiny smooth texture more reminiscent of a spirit than a liqueur. The alluring bouquet is generously imbued with the aroma of zesty, freshly squeezed lemons. Pallini Limoncello has a soft entry and quickly fills the mouth with a crisp, tangy and superbly delicious flavor. The relaxed, lingering finish is balanced and a genuine pleasure.

Pallini Peachcello

Pallini Peachcello is a tantalizing elixir, a light, satiny textured liqueur brimming with appeal. Its generous bouquet showcases the tantalizing aromas of ripe white peaches. As great as the bouquet is, the liqueur's fruit-derived palate is even more sensational. The complex array of fresh, peachy flavors is laced with notes of vanilla and spice. The lightly sweetened liqueur rolls over the palate eventually fading away in a relaxed, flavorful finish. Pallini's luxurious liqueur is the real deal, a peach experience that rivals sinking one's teeth into ripe fruit right off the tree. Pallini Peachcello is without peer.

Pallini Raspicello

Pallini Raspicello is a rare delight. It has a ruby, jewel-toned appearance and a silky, lightweight body. The aroma of wild vine-ripened raspberries is glorious. The bouquet more than sets the stage for what is to follow. The Raspicello's initial attach is somewhat demure yet remarkably smooth. As the liqueur washes over the palate, the fresh fruit flavors begin to grow in intensity, with the raspberry character attracting all of the early reviews. There are notes of other soft berries in the palate that are subtle, yet discernible for those who care to notice. The melange of delectable flavors lingers on the palate for an impressively long time. Raspicello is an exquisite, skillfully balanced liqueur.
