That's exactly what happened last night when almost 50 employees and managers were greeted by Mr. DeVito of the eponymous Premium Limoncello Liqueur. DeVito and Richard DeCicco of Harbrew Imports, Ltd., who worked closely with Danny to create a unique Limoncello made from the finest Sorrento lemons, fielded questions about the liqueur and offered mixing suggestions and tips.

They explained the finer points of the DeVito Limoncello, which boasts a refreshing flavor that is a perfect balance of tart and sweet. Limoncello is bottled on an estate nestled amid thousands of lemon trees on Italy's breathtaking Sorrento Peninsula on the Amalfi Coast. The Danny DeVito Premium Limoncello is made from the zest -- or the outer, yellow skin -- of flavorful Sorrento lemons, which are revered worldwide for their remarkable aroma, rich essential oils, exceptional juice and acidic content. The lemon zest is mixed with sugar, water and alcohol to create the finished product -- a luscious, lemony, 60-proof liqueur best served very cold or over ice.

DeVito noted that his Limoncello has found an outstanding home at the Marriott Marquis.

Richard DeCicco, CEO of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. said, "This is the first time in the history of our industry that a celebrity has ever hosted a wait staff training. It's unprecedented, and this is major because of the magnitude of the Marriott account."
