The history of Amaro Averna began in Caltanissetta, deep in the heart of Sicily. The Benedictine monk, Father Girolamo, gave a secret recipe to his friend Salvatore Averna. The recipe was for his 'amaro', a special herbal liqueur. This recipe has ever since been fiercely guarded and passed down for four generations. But this much we will divulge: traditional Sicilian herbs of rosemary and thyme, roots, bark, berries and citrus peel are all lovingly combined. Guaranteed not to contain colourings or added flavourings.

Intense aroma of Mediterranean herbs and citrus fruits, with a complex and balanced flavour, showing a perfect balance between bitter and sweet. Averna is a product that takes time to be fully appreciated. An acquired taste.
