History and Origin: A Tradition of Arancello
The history of citrus liqueurs in southern Italy is a story of passion, innovation, and a deep connection to the land. For centuries, the fertile coastal regions of Campania, Calabria, and Sicily have been renowned for their abundant citrus groves, where the warm sun and rich soil create ideal conditions for cultivating some of the world’s most aromatic and flavorful oranges. The tradition of making liqueurs from these fruits dates back to the 19th century, when local artisans began experimenting with infusing spirits with the vibrant zest of lemons, oranges, and mandarins.
Arancello, the lesser-known cousin of the famous Limoncello, is a testament to this tradition. While Limoncello gained widespread popularity as a staple of southern Italian hospitality, Arancello has remained a cherished local secret, celebrated for its distinctive, sweet citrus flavor. It is said that the first versions of Arancello were created by families who sought to use every part of the orange tree, from the aromatic zest to the fragrant blossoms, blending them with pure alcohol to create a liqueur that captured the essence of their sun-drenched homeland.
