Scents of the Coast

Profumi della Costiera is an artisanal liqueur distillery based in the heart of Ravello, on the Amalfi Coast. Here it makes its limoncello following an age-old recipe handed down from generation to generation, with a simple, time-honored process that captures the color and aroma of the lemon.

Profumi della Costiera's limoncello is made exclusively from the peels of Limone Costa d'Amalfi IGP, of the Sfusato Amalfitano variety. The name refers to the fruit's elongated shape and to the area where the variety has differentiated over time. It is a medium-to-large lemon, with a light-yellow peel rich in essential oils, an intense aroma, and juicy flesh with few seeds.

On the Coast, lemon cultivation is documented as early as the first half of the 11th century. The plants grow on pergolas over the terraces that shape the valleys and villages, once covered with traditional "pagliarelle". Harvesting takes place several times a year, but the best fruit arrives between March and late July.

Alongside limoncello, offered in various sizes, the distillery produces other liqueurs such as fennel liqueur and strawberry, melon, and licorice liqueurs.

A family recipe and the iconic Amalfi Coast lemon are the soul of Profumi della Costiera, which from Ravello bottles the flavors of its land.
