Crafted with Excellence
The excellence of Antica Sambuca is the result of a meticulous process that brings together exceptional ingredients and artisanal techniques. The primary components include anise stars, a proprietary blend of 17 herbs and spices, alcohol distilled from sugar beet molasses, water, and sugar. The star anise fruits, abundant in anethole oil, undergo a precise steam distillation process. Also accompanied by spices like wormwood, cinnamon, fennel, white pepper, iris, bitter orange, sweet orange, and coriander.
The Role of Key Ingredients
- Anise Stars: The seeds rich in anethole oil provide the distinctive Sambuca flavor.
- Alcohol: Distilled from sugar beet molasses, it plays a crucial role in achieving the desired character.
- Water: Adjusts alcohol content and extracts aromatic substances from herbs and spices.
- Sugar: Extracted from sugar beet, it ensures a colorless, crystalline final product – a hallmark of quality spirits.
Artisanal Distillation Process
The heart of Antica Sambuca lies in the preparation of anise distillate, where a meticulous infusion of star anise and a medley of 17 herbs and spices undergoes distillation in a copper still dating back to the late 1940s. This bain-marie system ensures uniform temperature, preserving all aromatic substances. The result is a crystal-clear, intensely flavored liquid with an alcohol strength of approximately 70% abv.
Finishing Touch
To achieve the perfect balance, the distilled liquid is skillfully mixed with a syrup of sugar and water, culminating in a final alcoholic content of 38% vol.
