Crafted from a traditional Sambuca recipe passed down through generations, Antica combines the most fragrant, premium star anise from China with an exceptionally smooth neutral spirit, sugar and water. The result is an authentic and truly versatile Sambuca to be enjoyed after dinner, in coffee or in imaginative cocktails. Antica Sambuca is a cherished Italian specialty produced with all-natural flavor infusions and extractions.

Tasting notes

Antica has a traditional but more pronounced and fragrant anise aroma leading to luxuriously rich, silky and sweet flavors with herbal notes on the palate.

Food pairing

Sambuca is traditionally served on its own as a liqueur, with ice or in coffee. To appreciate Antica in its purest form, pour an inch of Sambuca in a snifter and garnish with three espresso beans.
