- Description
Distillate of aniseed and other aromatic herbs from the area of Ascoli Piceno. It is produced according to the original recipe made by Silvio Meletti in 1870. It is a sweet strong drink and a glass of it is a sign of good taste. It is served with coffee, ice and water too and it is very good to make cakes and cocktails.Anisette is a clear, licorice flavored liqueur with a rich, warming taste.This wine is a delightful enhancement to espresso or by itself as an after dinner drink. You may enjoy it straight up or on the rocks.The very special flavor of Meletti Anisette is a result of slow evaporative distillation and the quality of the anise (Pimpinella Anisum) that is grown in the clay soil near Ascoli Piceno. During distillation Meletti discards the first and last portions of the distillate because they contain elements of bitterness. They keep only the “heart”, or middle portion, to ensure that the flavors are concentrated and consistent. Once distilled at high alcoholic strength, a second distillation of other spices is added. The liqueur is then transferred to 10,000 liter tanks for four months of aging, adjusted for proof, and bottled. The resulting anisette is rich, smooth, and exceptionally flavorful.
