LIQUOR - FRANGELICO

<h3 style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span class="tm7">Frangelico</span></strong> <span class="tm8"> is a brand of liquor that is produced in Canale, Italy. It was launched in 1978, gaining attention mainly because of its unusual packaging: the bottle was designed to look like a friar, even with the rope tied at the waist, and the lid imitating a bald. It is marketed basically in two sizes: the 750ml and the 375ml packaging.</span> <span class="tm8">The origin of Frangelico dates back more than 300 years, from the existence of the first Christian monks living in the mountains of northern Italy. According to the Italian manufacturer, the name of the liqueur is based on the legend of a hermit named Frei Angelico, who "created unusual recipes for liqueurs." The bottle, however, recalls the habit of a Franciscan friar; while the "namesake" of liquor, the famous painter Fra Angelico, was domonic, whose robes would have been white and without the rope.</span><strong><span class="tm7"></span></strong></h3><p></p><p></p>

LIQUOR - 43

<h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">The story of Licor <strong>43</strong> began more than 2000 years ago, legend has it that when the Romans conquered New Carthage, now Cartagena, southern Spain, they found an aromatic and golden elixir produced from fruits and herbs of the region, </span> <em>the Liqvor Mirabilis</em> <span class="tm7"> ("Wonderful Liquor") as called at the time.</span> Seeing the impact of the elixir on the behavior and morality of the locals, the Romans ordered the total destruction of their stock banned its production and consumption. But the Carthaginians continued to produce it in secret. However, this recipe was passed down from generation to generation and the result was Licor <strong>43</strong> <strong>(Cuarenta y Tres),</strong>which became by far the most popular liqueur in Spain. <span class="tm7">In 1946, Mr. Diego Zamora with his brothers, Angel and Josefina Zamora, with the support of Emilio Restoy, Josefina's husband, gathered everything they owned and, with hard work and tireless enthusiasm, began to produce and sell the liquor. A humble beginning, driven by pure passion, ushered in the history of the Zamora Company. Consumption of the product grew throughout the 1950s, and gained the world in the 1960s with </span> <em>Spain's</em> <span class="tm7"> tourism boom. Currently, Licor <strong>43 is the</strong> best-selling Spanish liqueur in the world.</span></h3><p></p>

LIQUOR - BEIRÃO

<h3 style="text-align:justify;"><strong><span class="tm6">The company J. Carranca Redondo Lda producer of Licor Beirão, was born in 1940, but the history of this liquor is much older. Still without the nickname Beirão, the liquor was already manufactured, in the village of Lousã, in a pharmacy, more than a century ago.</span></strong></h3><h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">But the story is told like this: at the end of the 19th century, a traveling wine salesman from Porto, passing through Lousã, fell in love with the daughter of a pharmacist, ending their relationship in marriage. In the pharmacy, in addition to the usual medicines, "natural liquors" were marketed according to old formulas kept secret. However, a law prohibiting the allocation of medicinal properties to alcoholic beverages enters into force. Taking advantage of the opportunity, the young man from the north carries out the autonomization of the production of nectars, by the same artisanal processes, in a small manufacture. But the name of Licor Beirão does not appear by chance. In 1929 a Beirão Congress was held in Castelo Branco and the liquor was named after the meeting. It is the difficulties brought by World War II that cause the factory to be sold in 1940 to a young native of Lousã, José Carranca Redondo, who worked there for some time. With just over twenty years and in the meantime married, decides to invest his savings by buying the house and the secret, dedicating body and soul to the liquor that came to be manufactured by the woman. Since then sales have continued to grow, becoming, at present, a very successful liqueur.</span></h3><h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">Currently, Licor Beirão is manufactured in Quinta do Meiral in Lousã (Coimbra district, Portugal). With more than 12 hectares, part of the plants and aromatic seeds used in their manufacture are produced here, thus allowing greater quality control. The remaining ingredients are imported from as far away as India, Sri Lanka, Brazil and Turkey, among others.</span></h3><p></p><p></p>

LIQUOR - AMARULA

<h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">The history of <strong>AMARULA CREAM</strong> began in October 1983 when a sophisticated liqueur, distilled from the exotic fruit of a tree in sub-Saharan Africa, called maruleira (Sclerocarrya birrea), and which resulted in a light, stable, rich and soft drink, was introduced to the South African market by the small company Southern Liqueur Company of South Africa. The fruit was harvested in February and March, its seeds were completely removed, the pulp underwent a fermentation process, similar to that of wine making and then by distillation in copper stills and then aged for two years in oak barrels.</span></h3><h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">The Maruleira Tree, a true botanical treasure of the African continent, is known as </span> <span class="tm8">"ELEPHANT TREE"</span><span class="tm7">, thus called by the predilection of animals for this fruit, which explains the elephant on the label of the bottle of the product. Initially extremely limited to the South African market and without much commercial appeal, only in September 1989 was the product line increased with the launch of a new version of the drink based on fresh cream, </span> <strong><span class="tm9">AMARULA CREAM.</span></strong><span class="tm7"> The success of the product was so rampant that shortly after the company discontinued the first version of the drink in favor of the new creamy liqueur.</span></h3><h3 style="text-align:justify;"><span class="tm7">Two years later the company was already exporting the product to meet growing demand in several markets, such as Brazil, Canada, Germany and the United Kingdom, and more recently the United States. And it didn't take long for AMARULA to be considered one of the best liquors in the world by respectable associations</span></h3><p></p><p></p>
