Over a century of fine distilling and a royal patent issued in 1879 are testaments to the great reputation of Meletti Sambuca. The best anise plants are cultivated from the clay soil of Ascoli Piceno. Careful blending and the use of pure anise flavors elevate Meletti’s Sambuca to a new dimension of elegance and smoothness. Rich and full-flavored, this is a perfect way to end a meal. Serve with coffee or straight-up with three coffee beans for good luck. Meletti Sambuca is one of Italy’s most prized liqueurs.
