Amaro 1870 is Bertagnolli's herbal liqueur, sold at 27% ABV and made from an infusion the producer describes as 21 botanical herbs and spices, to an old but revised recipe the producer states is preserved in the distillery's historical archive. The producer's own copy frames it as a balance of sweet and bitter; independent tasting notes describe sloe berry, almond, dried thyme and ginger spice.

ZONE 05 — ASTERLEY EDITORIAL NOTE

The suggested subcategory for Amaro 1870 is alpino, reflecting the producer's Trentino-Dolomites terroir framing, but this is a recommendation for editorial confirmation rather than a determination: exact botanicals are undisclosed and the producer's own copy leans toward general liqueur and digestivo language rather than explicit bitter framing. The producer's dedicated History and Timeline pages (present in the sitemap at /History, /en/History and /de/Timeline) returned HTTP 404 on every fetch attempt, re-confirmed at verification on 2026-07-18; founding facts are instead corroborated via the producer-supplied About text on TripAdvisor and the regional tourism consortium. A separate gentian-infused product, Infuso alla Genziana (40% ABV, 0.50 l), was excluded from this profile as a flavoured grappa infusion rather than a standalone bitter liqueur: the producer's own product page gives its aroma and taste as 'tipico di grappa' (typical of grappa) with gentian notes.
