Limoncello Making Class

Ciao Asheville wraps up our 2022 line of events just in time for the holidays. Join us on Sunday, December 11 at 2pm to learn how to make the popular Italian Liqueur, Limoncello.

And you’ll get to sample both versions to see which one you like best! You’ll also get to take home a copy of Howard’s recipe.
