Notes | |||
"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." —producer |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Chestnut black color. Rich aromas of herbal roots, turmeric, wintermint, and burnt sugar follow through on a round, supple entry to mildly sweet and lightly bitter full body with a great balanced of bitter herbs, roots, honey, and Indian spices. Finishes with long, unsweetened chocolate and espresso bean-like fade. Delicious and a great digestif or cocktail ingredient." —Beverage Testing Institute "Complex and appealingly herbal, this spirit is marked by its coffee-brown color and a scent like spearmint-spiked espresso. The flavor is sweet, faintly coffee-like, with warm Dutch licorice, anise and sarsaparilla notes. The brisk finish is minty then bitter. Heavy, syrupy feel." —Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast Magazine Gold, International Review of Spirits |
