Myrtle (Myrtus communis), sacred to the goddesses Aphrodite, was used by the ancient Greeks to encircle the head of the winners in games, solidifying the plant as a symbol of glory. The tradition of Mirto Liqueur, famous on the island of Sardinia, arrived by way of bandits from Gallura who took it from nearby Corsica. Estate grown Myrtle lines ancient walls, remnants of a medieval hospital, at Vicario’s family farm Villa Sant’Andrea in Cortona, Italy. The myrtle berries are harvested by hand in autumn, and the liqueur is finished in South Carolina. The result is a delightfully refreshing herbal liqueur with notes of black tea, cinnamon, and faint bitter orange.

Country: United States

For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.
