The most noble of all, the Mistr\u00e0 Varnelli, a special dry corrective sovereign anise of coffee, is the true master of conviviality. The company that produces it, the Varnelli Distillery, was founded exactly 150 years ago and was the first in the region to have obtained the license for the processing of alcoholic products.<\/p>\n
Ancient wisdom, care of the artisan process, healthy and selected raw materials, link with the territory and respect for the environment, with an inexhaustible passion for work and an innate vocation for innovation. This, today as then, is the recipe behind the success of an entrepreneurial reality born, to be honest, as a small family business, but in a century and a half, has come to conquer the world markets in the high spirits segment.<\/p>\n
The \u201cVarnelli\u201d is a unique and original product that enhances the Mediterranean tradition of aniseed liqueurs and is appreciated for its dry and strong taste that makes it very pleasant in many uses. Tasting it you enter the world of a \u201cspecial taste\u201d, difficult to describe in words. For this reason, his label has always been a phrase coined by Antonio Varnelli: \u201cA tasting is enough for me\u201d.<\/p>\n
The same company also produces the Amaro Sibilla, a liqueur linked to the history and the ancient uses of the mountain territory from which it takes its name. It was invented in 1868 by Girolamo Varnelli who put to good use his great herbal experience to have a product that was also a \u201cremedy\u201d for the shepherds of transhumance. Even today, this bitter is obtained from a wood-fired decoction of gentian and other medicinal plants. It is sweetened exclusively with the Monti Sibillini honey and then long decanted and finished in canvas before being bottled.<\/p>\n
But the real witness of the herbal experience of Casa Varnelli, an award-winning company now entrusted to the guidance of four women, is definitely Amaro Erborista. This excellent bitterness is obtained from a decoction, on wood-burning fire, of officinal herbs, roots and barks, among which the intense aroma of rhubarb stands out. Also sweetened with honey from the Sibillini Mountains, it is also distinguished by its characteristic opalescence. Originally intended for herbalists, it has conquered the best restaurant for its goodness and originality.<\/p>\n
