M\u00e9nele is born! The new almond liqueur, 100% natural and vegetable made by the Apulian liqueur factory Beltion, founded in 1952, producer of more than 70 products distributed in Italy and all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The brand BELTION was recently included by the Ministry of Economic Development in the special register of historical brands of national interest, because it represents Italian excellence and contributes to the enhancement of Made in Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the numerous and precious Beltion products, M\u00e9nele stands out today, a liqueur that has passed the strict vegan certification criteria of Veganok, the most widespread ethical standard in the world; in fact, M\u00e9nele is totally free of any animal derivative in its ingredients and in its packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The word \u201cM\u00e9nele\u201d means \u201calmonds\u201d in the Apulian dialect, and M\u00e9nele gives the intensive taste of almonds exclusively from the beautiful and fertile territory of Puglia. This rich and ancient fruit has been in the history of Beltion since 1885 when the great-grandfathers of the current owners offered almond milk in a caf\u00e9 in Putignano, pounding fresh almonds in a large stone mortar, still jealously guarded today. There is no addition of milk or cream, only the lightness of a perfect balance between sweet and bitter almonds, a wonderful alternative to the classic amaretto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M\u00e9nele is a delicately alcoholic liqueur (16% vol.), it is sublime if drunk very cold as it is, but also extremely versatile in the preparation of traditional or contemporary cocktails. Lastly (but not the least), it can be used as the surprising ingredient in the experimentation of the most varied gourmet recipes for its creaminess and intense flavor.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
