Discover the Elisir della Certosa, a historic liqueur produced within the ancient walls of the monastery according to a recipe handed down over the centuries.

A “sweet” bitter, more delicate than Fernet, born from the infusion of 16 carefully selected herbs and medicinal roots.

An elixir of well-being:

• Soft and aromatic taste: a perfect balance between bitter and sweet notes, with a pleasantly persistent finish.
• Natural ingredients: 16 herbs and roots give the Elixir digestive and toning properties.
• Versatility: Enjoy it straight at the end of a meal, or slightly warmed in a bain-marie with a slice of lemon for an even more intense digestive effect.
• Monastic tradition: a product that contains centuries of history and herbal wisdom.

Treat yourself to a moment of pleasure and well-being with Elisir della Certosa, a liqueur that combines tradition, taste and natural benefits.
