Head Bartender Valentino Longo likes to say Were taking the guest on a viaggio exploring the flavors and the ingredients from this amazing part of Italy. Here you have the sun,il sole. Positanos Sun is powerful and intense, yet sweet and romantic. It yields the best lemons, dries the tastiest tomatoes, and provides a rich life. We translate such delicate intensity with both Grappa and Mezcal. Just one sip and youll practically be basking in his burst of sunshine in a tall glass. As Pablo Picasso said, Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun. With my Sole, I hope I have succeeded in doing both. Its on the citrus side with both a hint of smoke and a hint of spicy.
