The liqueur has obtained a characteristic green color with a high alcohol content, and refined aromatic aromas, among which mint predominates.A strong and gentle product, from a good self-respecting Abruzzo native. Initially appreciated by pilgrims and shepherds, it then became known as a real medicine: Centerba Toro was in fact used for its healing characteristics in the Kingdom of Naples during the cholera epidemic of 1884, with Centerba Toro floats leaving every day. from Tocco da Casauria towards the Neapolitan capital.In 1972 Roberto Toro and his son Enrico of F.lli Toro Specialità Centerba founded Enrico Toro d.c., a modern company capable of facing the new challenges of the market and maintaining the same recipe, to which they gave a new &#34;interpretation&#34;: a Centerba with a different timbre.In 1998 F.lli Toro closed the old factory and the products were bottled and distributed under license by Enrico Toro d.c.Today it is an artisanal product that is the flagship of the Abruzzo liqueur tradition, appreciated throughout the world. The secret formula is jealously guarded and handed down from father to son for generations: a recipe that evokes the charm of the places, expressing the atmosphere of this land in the most authentic way.
