Fernet Branca Bitters Amaro 750mL

Intensely herbal and intensely bitter. Created by a self-taught herbalist in Milan in 1845, Fernet-Branca is made from a secret recipe of more than 40 herbs and spices, including rhubarb, chamomile, cardamom, saffron and myrrh. Fernet is a type of bitter amaro which is designed to help settle the stomach, aid in digestion, and support the liver. It may seem slightly counter intuitive to imbibe on something that is good for your liver, but it’s important to remember that spirits all have their origins in medicine and alchemy. A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, but alcohol helped make it potable and preserved the herbs far beyond their regular shelf life.
