There is a story according to which the idea of Limoncello liqueur production came to Sergio Massa’s mind after talking with local farmers who complained that they could not sell all the lemons. Obviously, thanks to the wonderful climate of Sorrento Peninsula, these famous lemons grew all over the year, and the farmers produced more fruit than they could sell. Sergio realized that he could offer local producers to use their products to make Limoncello liqueur, which family recipe was created back in 1890. Sergio approached his brother Stefano with a business proposal, thus in 1991, the family company Villa Massa was founded, which began producing the magnificent Limoncello liqueur.

At the end of the 19th century, the first visitors to Villa Massa were offered a liqueur made from lemons grown in the gardens of the Massa family. In 1991, in the heart of the Sorrento Peninsula, Sergio Stefano brothers founded Villa Massa to make limoncello available to the world. The liqueur is made according to an old recipe created in 1890. Today, Villa Massa is the best-selling limoncello in the world.
