Limoncello

Hand picked. Hand peeled. Hand crafted

At Long Way Round Distilling Co., we take pride in our exquisite limoncello, a vibrant Italian liqueur made from lemons sourced from backyards across Adelaide. We believe that the quality of our limoncello lies in the uniqueness of each lemon, resulting in a truly remarkable and ever-changing flavor profile. Harvested by hand, each lemon is peeled by hand, ensuring every drop is infused with the pure essence of the fruit. Our traditional recipe combines the zest of these hand peeled lemon skins, along with a touch of olive tree leaves, infused in a blend of sugar and water. With no preservatives or artificial colors or flavors, every sip captures the essence of Adelaide's diverse lemon varieties and the passion we have for creating a true taste of authenticity.

Serve over ice or with soda water for a quick and easy beverage or include some bubbles to make a summertime spritz.

If you have excess lemons that you are not using, please contact us and we’ll make some limoncello from them. You’ll even score a complimentary bottle of limoncello when we make a batch using you lemons.

Our Ingredients

Backyard Lemons

  • Only home grown lemons from backyards across Adelaide and South Australia. We don’t limit ourselves to one variety, which makes this a constantly evolving product.

    If you have lemons that we could use please contact us. We trade limoncello for lemons!

  • Adds a little savoury note to our limoncello and has also been used in Italian limoncello for centuries. Normally we “borrow” what we need from the neighbours overhanging branches

Olive Leaf

  • We could bullshit about how we get our water from some mountain glacier with the purest water mankind has ever seen…….. but we don’t.

    We use particle and activated carbon filtered water, like most normal people.

Sugar

  • Australian made white sugar. Nothing special as its all about the lemons

Filtered Water
