Description

Varnelli is an artisan distillery that was founded in 1868 by Girolamo Varnelli who studied the medicinal plants of his homeland in the heart of the Sibillini Mountains and used them to develop many recipes for distillates and bitters, including Amaro Sibilla (which at the time was valued for its role as an antimalarial and antipyretic drug for its high content of Gentiana Lutea and China Calyssaia). His son Antonio Varnelli proceeded to develop a unique recipe for anisette and create Varnelli which quickly became the hallmark of the Varnelli Distillery and brought fame to the family name. Since its founding in 1868 by Girolamo Varnelli, the distillery has been constantly managed by the Varnelli family who has strictly followed the same secret recipes, using native herbs, plants, and flavors and traditional production practices. From the grinding of the ingredients with a mortar and pestle to the fueling of the fire with logs, the entire production process is executed by hand as it has been for over a century.
