Fast Penny Spirits and Amaricano were born from Jamie’s vision to start an Amaro company combined with her career in the global digital world.
​
With grandparents who emigrated from Sicily, Jamie grew up embracing Italian culture and flavors from an early age. Building a company focused on creating a high-quality, complex but approachable American-made amaro was a natural fit. Being a Pacific Northwest native, Jamie also wanted to highlight the abundant organic and wild-crafted ingredients the region had to offer.
