Scarlet Radice Amaro

Tatsuya “Moto” Motonaga created the Scarlet project out of a deep passion for Amaro. Born in Osaka, Tatsuya worked in some of the most innovative bars in Japan before embarking on his journey to create this truly artisanal Amaro. He then visited over 70 distilleries in Europe who had centuries of history crafting botanical spirits to see what he could learn. Ultimately, these centuries worth of invaluable knowledge have inspired this bottle, a masterpiece of a liquid. Most of the 30 botanicals used are estate grown at a farm located next to the Iseya Distillery in Sagamihara, Japan, farmed without any chemical use. Bergamot, black cumin, chicory, and even cacao are just some of the ingredients used. A kaleidoscope of an Amaro, this bottle combines the familiar comfort of fond memories with something totally new.
