Fernet-Branca

Fernet-Branca is a bitter, aromatic herbal liqueur that was created in 1845 by Bernardino Fernet. It is made from a secret recipe of over 27 different herbs and spices, including saffron, myrrh, aloe, rhubarb, chamomile, and gentian root. The herbs and spices are macerated in alcohol and then aged in oak barrels for a minimum of one year.

Fernet Branca has a long history and has been enjoyed by many famous figures over the years. Fernet Branca was famously enjoyed by Ernest Hemingway and was Winston Churchill’s favourite drink, and he is quoted as saying: “In victory, deserve it. In defeat, need it.”
