Fernet Branca is an Italian bitter liqueur made with a secret blend of 27 herbs and spices. It is often used as a digestif, consumed after a meal to help settle the stomach.
The taste of Fernet Branca is strong and bitter, with prominent flavours of menthol, cinnamon, and eucalyptus. It has a complex, herbal flavour profile and a long, bitter finish.
Fernet Branca is typically consumed neat, either on its own or with a splash of cola. When paired with food, it works well with rich and fatty dishes such as steak or creamy pasta. The bitter and herbal flavours help to cleanse the palate and refresh the mouth, making it a great complement to heavy, indulgent meals.
