"Although legally classified in the U.S. as a liqueur, this dark-brown Sicilian drink is actually an amaro, a form of bitters. The nose is very complex, with notes of cinnamon, black pepper, cloves and a host of bitter herbs. The medium body holds a palate that's sweeter than the nose leads you to expect, but not overly so - once again it's very complex on the tongue, reminiscent of licorice, nuts and a host of spices. The finish is very warm, and very long."94 Points, Wine Enthusiast
Averna is an excellent liqueur with full body and smooth taste, extremely pleasant for every moment of the day. You can drink it or taste it straight, with ice or frozen. It is produced using an ancient recipe made of herbs, which has been passed down from one generation to another since 1868. Each of the most delicate phases of the production of the bitter, all of which take place in the herbalist’s laboratory, are stringently checked in order to guarantee the authenticity of the ingredients and the high quality of the product. This is why Averna is one of the most famous bitters appreciated worldwide.
