Embassy Spirits, LLC is the sole and exclusive USA importer surrounding a ultra-premium brand of liqueurs produced in New Zealand by Villa Italia, Ltd., and bottled under the "Sovrano" brand. Sovrano Limoncello and Sovrano Cream Limoncello are the #1-rated Limoncello in the world (Proof66), as well as the recipient of 19 gold medals in international spirits competitions since 2010, including Platinum and 2 Gold Medals at the 2015 Beverage Tasting Institute. Based upon a 5th generation family recipe, Sovrano uses only locally grown, insecticide-free lemons and blends them with locally produced grain alcohol, distilled to a pure 96.4%. In their 2010 review, the Beverage Testing Institute declared Sovrano "A fantastically vital, pure and delicious Limoncello" and, in 2011 by calling it "A Monumental Limoncello!" Sovrano is the purest and most unique Limoncello ever made! Combine this with elegance, simplicity of pure flavor and depths of taste that lingers forever and you have an exceptional quality product beyond comparison. Perfect on its own and brilliant in cocktails, it enhances flavors when used in cooking and it adds a new dimension of taste when poured over ice cream, fruit salad and pastries.
