A superlatively high quality sambuca created thanks to the daily work of our expert distillers who select only the finest ingredients. Characterised by the addition of star anise spirit. Its sweet, warm and long persistence makes it perfect after coffee or on the rocks. With the addition of the traditional “fly” (a single coffee bean), it turns into a timeless classic.
- Key Ingredients: The primary flavor comes from essential oils extracted from star anise and green anise seeds. These are blended with infusions of other aromatic herbs and spices, which may include elder flower and coffee beans.
- Taste and Aroma: It offers a pungent aroma and a sweet, full-bodied taste with strong notes of anise and black licorice, often complemented by subtle hints of peppermint or citrus.
- Alcohol Content: The liqueur typically has an alcohol by volume (ABV) of around 38% to 40%.
- Aging Process: The distillate is aged to ensure a perfect blending and balance of its various aromas before bottling.
- Neat or Chilled: It is often served neat or intensely chilled to fully appreciate its rich aroma.
- “Con la Mosca”: A classic Italian serving ritual (meaning “with the fly”) involves serving it with three roasted coffee beans floating in the glass, which are said to represent health, happiness, and prosperity, and add a pleasant crunch and subtle coffee note.
- In Coffee/Cocktails: It can be added to coffee or used as a key ingredient in a variety of cocktails, where its distinct personality can be combined with other flavors.
