There's a stunning amount of product showcased here, most of which you'll never see in the US. You can find The standard Strega bitter liquor at some specialty liquor stores in the US, but some research may be involved depending on where you live.

Perched atop cliffs that separate the town from its busy marinas, it's known for sweeping water views and Piazza Tasso, a cafe-lined square. The historic center is a warren of narrow alleys that's home to the Chiesa di San Francesco, a 14th-century church with a tranquil cloister.

It was absolutely delicious! We were pointed in the right direction of what we had sampled. As we were walking along, I received another sample that was a lemon chocolate about the size of two M&M's put together, and it had a tiny bit of lemoncello in it. So yummy. I had to get some of those as well! Great service, cute shop, and very efficient. We will be back!

I have not been offered so many samples in my life, and I frequent Costco on the weekends.
