Origin and history
Frangelico is a traditional hazelnut liqueur from Italy, tracing its origins back over 300 years. Named after a hermit monk, Fra Angelico, who lived in the Piedmont region, the liqueur embodies the area’s rich heritage of hazelnut cultivation. The recipe, which remains a closely guarded secret, involves infusing hazelnuts with coffee, cocoa, and vanilla essences, creating its distinctive, smooth flavor. Distilled in the Piedmont region, Frangelico is instantly recognizable by its unique bottle shaped like a monk’s habit, complete with a rope belt. This liqueur is celebrated worldwide for its rich, nutty taste and versatility in cocktails.
