Canale Liquori di Sicily: Tradition and Innovation in the Heart of Sicily
Located in Lercara Friddi, in the province of Palermo, Canale Liquori di Sicilia is an artisanal company that for over twenty years has passionately dedicated itself to the production of liqueurs and craft beers. Founded in the late 1990s by the Canale family, this company stands out for its meticulous attention to the quality of ingredients, using exclusively natural raw materials sourced from the Sicilian territory.
Originally born as a small home laboratory, the company has managed to transform its love for island traditions into a recognized artisanal production, while maintaining a strong capacity for innovation. In 2018, the production of craft beers was added, with an eco-sustainable microbrewery aiming to produce unfiltered, unpasteurized beers with natural bottle refermentation, always ensuring a “live” beer.
A range of artisanal products that tell the story of Sicily
The production of Canale Liquori di Sicilia is characterized by variety and quality, offering a catalog full of local specialties, made with artisanal methods and ancient recipes:
- Amaro Sikano: a herbal liqueur with a bold character, 30% alcohol by volume, excellent both as an aperitif and a digestif.
- Limoncello Sikano and Arancello Sikano: two island classics, made with carefully selected lemon and orange peels.
- Crema: a creamy liqueur available in various flavors, such as pistachio, almond, and melon, with a lighter alcohol content of 17%.
- Distillates like Vodka (40% vol.) and Gin (42% vol.) complete the offering, designed for those seeking bold and refined flavors.
Attention to the environment and sustainability is an additional value: spent grains from beer production are donated to livestock farms for cattle feed, while hop residues are transformed into organic fertilizer for horticulture, thus enhancing every phase of the production cycle.
A distinctive aspect of Canale is its contract manufacturing service, which allows restaurants, bars, and farms to create personalized liqueurs, with full support from label design to the production process. This formula is particularly appreciated by those working with organic products and seeking an authentic and quality label, such as in the case of limoncello and arancello made with organic citrus fruits or herbal amari with personalized infusions.
