Fernet-Branca is a mythical Italian bitter that was created in 1845. It is made from 27 herbs including rhubarb, chamomile, saffron and lime.
Slowly macerated for a year in Slavonian oak barrels, its complexity, and thus its success for almost 180 years, is due to the proportions and the blend of these herbs that make it absolutely unique and inimitable.
It was in Milan, in 1845, that Bernardino Branca, with the help of his three sons, founded the Fratelli Branca distillery. A visionary apothecary, he gave birth to Fernet-Branca, a natural and herbaceous bitter aged for a long time in barrels, which was very quickly sought after for its medicinal properties. Known for curing stomach aches and improving appetite, it is even said that Fernet-Branca cured cholera.
One thing is certain: its recipe, which is exclusive and still kept secret, consists of no less than 27 ingredients: herbs, plants, roots and flowers from the four continents. And it is thanks to its unique and inimitable formula that Fernet-Branca has always stood out from other bitters. As proof, from the end of the 19th century, its success quickly spread beyond the Italian borders, until it became an unavoidable reference in the four corners of the world. A great first for an Italian bitter. Fernet-Branca even conquered the United States and Australia.
Since then, it is no longer for its medicinal properties that Fernet-Branca has won people over but for its complex and unique personality.
Present in one hundred and sixty countries, it can be drunk neat or simply diluted with tonic and of course in cocktails. Today, it is still favoured by the greatest bartenders all over the world.
