The estate of Casalvento, located on the highest hill of Castellina in Chianti, offers to Sienese visitors the colour and the scent of Lavender and many other officinal plants. This Tuscan area is renowned for the natural flavour of the land and the climate suitable for the production of DOCG Chianti Classico (Controlled and Guaranteed Denomination of Origin) and PDO Olive Oil (Protected Designation of Origin). Since 1962 we have been cultivating Lavender, Helichrysum, Rose, Iris and other medicinal, aromatic and fragrant plants extracting ESSENTIAL OILS and FLORAL WATERS in steam stream.
The line includes the following plants:
Fragrance and flavor extracts for soft drinks 0.0 % alcohol.
Non-alcoholic floral distillates are completely revolutionizing the way of cocktails: freely sold and drunk without any risk of alcoholic overdose at any age and during pregnancy, they are a sure opportunity not to give up all the taste of a GIN, a WHISKEY or a perfumed COGNAC.
