About Lemon Groves and Limoncello
Amalfi
The Amalfi Coast is renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich agricultural heritage, particularly its famous lemon groves. The region produces two prized varieties, Limone di Amalfi and Limone di Sorrento, both celebrated for their large size, intense flavour, and fragrant aroma. Thriving in the Mediterranean climate and volcanic soil, these lemons are typically grown in steep, terraced groves that offer breathtaking views of the coast. They are essential to the local culinary culture, used in various dishes and desserts, and are famously transformed into limoncello, a beloved lemon liqueur. Visitors to the Amalfi Coast can explore these groves, learn about traditional cultivation methods, and enjoy fresh lemon-based products, adding to the charm of this picturesque region.
