Star anise and fennel form the traditional foundation of this fruity, fragrant liqueur, infused with fresh orchard apples, orange juice and zest alongside herbal botanicals for a genuinely juicy twist on classic Sambuca. Star anise and fennel open the aromatic profile alongside fresh orchard apples and orange juice, developing into a sweet, marmalade-like palate carried by fragrant herbs, closing with cinnamon and floral notes on a long, smooth finish that reflects Venice's traditional liqueur-making heritage reimagined in a genuinely tropical direction.
