Is Disaronno Amaretto?

The history of Amaretto goes all the way back to the 16th century. According to legend, a student of Leonardo da Vinci traveled to the town of Saronno in 1525. There, he painted frescoes for a church, the Santa Maria della Grazie. The model he used for his Madonna soon became his muse. This widow gave the painter a gift, which would have been the very first amaretto. Disaronno is said to be based on this special recipe.

Amaretto means something like 'a little bitter.' It is a unique liqueur with an almond flavor. So you might think this flavor comes from real almonds. But that does not necessarily have to be the case. The production of amaretto is not as strictly regulated as, for example, grappa. Disaronno can also be called amaretto, even though almonds do not necessarily play a major role during production.

The almond flavor from Disaronno is (partly) derived from apricot kernels. These kernels give a similar taste as almonds. Moreover, it is historically very responsible to make amaretto this way. The widow's recipe supposedly also used apricots.
