THE HISTORY
Maraschino Buton comes from the famous G.Buton & C. Distillery, founded in Italy in 1820 by Jean Buton, heir to a family that was among the official suppliers of Napoleon I.
​
The Buton liqueurs were an instant success, crossing national boundaries and becoming ever more numerous.
​
Indeed, in the twentieth century, the distillery catalogue offered 45 different types of liqueurs. Of these, Maraschino Buton stands out. Over the years, it garnered such success that in 1900 it won the “Grand Prix” medal at the prestigious Universal Exhibition in Paris.

THE METHOD
A distillate is obtained from the finest selection of marasca cherries, which, when mixed with a hydroalcoholic sugar solution and natural aromas, gives rise to the liqueur.
It is then filtered to give an extreme brightness.
The straw wrapping around the bottle is traditional for the category. Originally from Dalmatia, maraschino was formerly traded by sea and Venetian merchants wrapped the bottles in straw to prevent them from breaking during the long journey.
AROMATIC INTENSITY.
With refreshing aromas and a soft feel on the palate.

NOSE
