Aurum is a sweet orange-flavored Italian liqueur produced in Pescara[1] since 1925. It is 40% alcohol by volume and it is made from aged brandy and a citrus fruit infusion consisting of orange rind, orange juice and saffron.[2][3] The saffron serves to imbue it with a deep yellow coloration.[2] Aurum has been described as a digestif.[4] It goes well with sweets, especially with parrozzo, another specialty of Pescara. Other than as a drink, it is often used as a cake ingredient or as an addition to ice-cream.

Etymology

The name of this liqueur was chosen by Amedeo Pomilio, the founder of the Aurum factory, upon suggestion by the poet and writer Gabriele D'Annunzio, with a reference to the ancient Roman origins of the recipe. The name derives from the pun between the Latin words aurum, which means gold, and aurantium, which means orange (fruit).
