Pietro Nicola Caffè Margaux (50cl – Coffee Spirit)

Launched in March 2020, Pietro Nicola Caffè Margaux is the second bottling from our range of Aperitivi & Digestivo that takes cues from the roots of our founder, but is predominantly inspired by the drinking culture of Italy.

For the production of Caffè Margaux (pronounced Kah-fay Mar-Go), a rich, intense and bittersweet coffee spirit, we firstly age green Ethiopian coffee beans in an oak-barrel that previously held both Bourbon and Porter – with the green beans essentially acting like a sponge absorbing flavours such as vanilla and toffee from the whiskey, and dark chocolate, dark fruit and nuts from the porter – before roasting the beans, cooling, grounding and macerating in neutral grain spirit for a minimum of two weeks. After this period we filter, dilute to bottling strength and lightly sweeten with a touch of demerara sugar to assist the richness and mouthfeel.
