Winemaker's Notes:
We made a delicious spritz from fine wine & lemons! Serve in a wine glass with lots of ice. Top with soda. Garnish with a sprig of mint.

This Spritz uses our signature Unico Cello. Why is our Cello important? The lemons are what one might call "UGLY". Yes, they are different sizes and kind of weird looking. Unfortunately, that meant that supermarkets did not want to buy them. So, after trying to sell these ugly little lemons for years, the growers decided to remove the 150 year old trees. To help preserve this historic orchard, Applewood Distillery put up our hands and promised to buy all whole crop to make our delicious Limoncello. 

It is our labour of love. Literally! We spend 12 hours hand peeling lemons from the orchard to produce this delicious drop. In fact, we have a family ritual of taking turns to peel a couple of buckets a day. Everyone chips in!
