Borghetti Sambuca

Borghetti is the name Italians themselves react to when the conversation turns to sambuca or after-dinner coffee liqueur. The house has made a point of keeping production faithful to classic recipes, with no shortcuts or artificial flavourings. It's the kind of bottle you'll find behind the bar at a genuine Italian trattoria.

Ekspertens beskrivelse
Borghetti Sambuca is an Italian aniseed liqueur based on a careful selection of star anise flowers, bottled at 38% ABV.
Borghetti is a historic Italian brand, best known for the coffee liqueur Caffè Borghetti, and is today run by the Fratelli Branca distillery, founded in Milan in 1845 by Bernardino and Carolina Branca. Sambuca Borghetti is made by distilling star anise, which is then blended with alcohol and sugar to create the classic, clear sambuca style.
Smag
The liqueur has a clean, intense aniseed flavour with a pleasant sweetness and a light spiced warmth. The characteristic clarity and sharp aniseed aroma make it a typical representative of the traditional sambuca style.

About Borghetti

Borghetti Sambuca is a classic Italian sambuca, known for its clean aniseed flavour and traditional production method. For the newcomer it's an accessible entry into the sweet, aniseed-based spirits category; for the connoisseur, Borghetti is one of the more authentic Italian sambuca names, often preferred by Italians themselves over the more commercial export brands, and the house also produces a well-known espresso liqueur just as common on Italian café tables.

History & Background

The Borghetti house has its roots in Italian coffee and liqueur tradition and is best known today for two products: classic aniseed sambuca and a dense, dark espresso liqueur. Both reflect Italian café culture, where a strong cup of coffee and a small glass of sweet spirit traditionally close out a meal. Although Borghetti is now distributed internationally, the brand still holds firmly onto its role as an everyday name in Italian bars and restaurants.

Production & Style

The sambuca is distilled from star anise following a classic recipe, giving it a pronounced sweetness.

Signature Style

Anise-Like, Sweet, Full-Bodied
The flavor offers a full-bodied anise sweetness with a clean, powerful finish.
