An 18th-Century Friar's Recipe
Sibona's story for Alo-è reaches back to an 18th-century friar's recipe for aloe and honey — a remedy tradition the Barbero family distillery reimagined as a modern liqueur. Aloe vera and honey infuse slowly in fine Sibona grappa, emerging round, harmoniously sweet, and gently herbal at just 24% ABV. It is the kind of bottle that finds its fans by word of mouth: unusual, soothing, and dangerously easy to pour. Browse more liqueurs or the Sibona lineup at Del Mesa.
