What is the story behind Alma Limoncello?
The founder of Alma Limoncello is a Dutch woman, Marie, who moved ITS LIMES!
When they lived in Europe, Marie and her husband Wessel loved to drink Limoncello with friends and family after a festive meal. What a surprise to them when they discovered that there is no good Mexican Limoncello in a country that produces the best limes on the planet.
That's when they decided to produce their own Limoncello at home. They spent many weekends as a family peeling limes by hand, with the help of their two childres. After hundreds of tests, they found the perfect recipe, the perfect distillery and shared the limoncello with their friends. And so the story of Alma Limoncello began...
Why the name Alma Limoncello?
ALMA is not just a name, it is the spirit of Mexico in a bottle. With every sip, we celebrate the Mexican way of transforming the simple into something special: a meal with friends, an afternoon of laughter, an unexpected toast.
The name ALMA comes from the memory and energy of someone who always knew how to enjoy life, the founders' dad. Her spirit lives on in this brand: in the freshness of our lemons, in the vibrant green color and in every moment of joy that we share.
ALMA is more than a limoncello, it is an invitation to toast with the soul.
How is Alma Limoncello produced?
This is a completely artisanal liqueur. We start by selecting the best naturally grown limes of Mexico. We choose to buy the limes from a small Mexican farmer who grow limes in Veracruz in a natural way. The limes are peeled by hand in a distillery in Mexico City, run by women. It is essential to do it by hand to ensure that only the best parts of the lemons are used.
We then add the lime peels to large containers of alcohol, leaving them for weeks to allow the oils in the peels to infuse with the alcohol. The final step is to add the exact amount of homemade sugar syrup to the limoncello to achieve the perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
We bottle limoncello in bottles made entirely from recycled glass.
We are a small batch producer with a passion for crafting the finest limoncello, one bottle at a time.
Is Alma Limoncello 100% natural?
Yes, we don't use artificial colors, additives, or preservatives. We use lime peel, water, sugar, and alcohol—that's all!
ALMA Limoncello is gluten-free.
