The makers of Fattoria di Limone announce the launch of a premium brand of American-made limoncello in markets in the northeastern US.
Fattoria di Limone Limoncello Original Liqueur is a lemon-flavored beverage made in small batches from regionally-sourced natural ingredients, mostly within New York State, following a classic Italian recipe.
The company has partnered with KyMar Distillers in Charlotteville, NY to create 375 ml and 750 ml size varieties. Fattoria di Limone now available statewide in New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey.
Flavored liqueurs such as limoncello are one of the fastest growing beverage categories in the US.
Fattoria di Limone -- which means "lemon farm" in Italian -- is a minority-owned company led by two entrepreneurs, Dawn Jacksland and Erik Christman, who share several decades of experience in sales, marketing, and advertising. "It's an exciting time in the industry and we're happy to have the opportunity to create unique, hand crafted liqueurs in upstate New York," said Mr. Christman, President and COO of Fattoira. "We hope to change the way people think of liqueurs, especially limoncello." Mrs. Jacksland, CEO adds, "Taste the difference. Doing it right takes time. At Fattoria, we are willing to take the time and put in the work, and our product speaks to the quality."
Fattoria di Limone is an environmentally conscious company that utilizes natural by-products from limoncello like the lemon juice. Fattoria utilizes a unique blending process that produces consistently tasting batches year after year, unlike any other limoncello that is hand made.
Plans for expansion of the product line through 2014 and 2015 include a variety of products featuring premium Meyer lemons as well as salted caramel cream based drink.
