Topazio is made from the peel of the Tardivo di Ciaculli, a late-ripening Palermo mandarin so rare it is protected as a Slow Food Presidium. The peel is infused and blended with Sicilian grape distillate, water and sugar, then bottled unfiltered at 35% ABV in a 500mL bottle, pouring an opaque orange from the natural mandarin oils. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70 proof (35% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 500mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tardivo di Ciaculli mandarin peel — Slow Food Presidium, Sicily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sicilian grape distillate; unfiltered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Casa Limònio, Partinico, Sicily — founded 1992 by Vincenzo Russo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sicily, Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Rarest Mandarin in Sicily\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tardivo di Ciaculli ripens late in the orchards around Ciaculli, outside Palermo, and its aromatic peel is the whole point of Topazio: the Russos infuse the raw ingredient in stainless steel and blend it with grape distillate from family recipes, filtering nothing out. The result is a mandarin liqueur with real peel character rather than candy-orange sweetness.
