Description

Distilleria Varnelli is responsible for the drink, a family operation that began in 1868 in the rugged Sibillini Mountains. The family’s first product was Amaro Sibilla, which took home gold at the International Exhibition in Turin in 1909. The company continues to occupy quaint villages in the backcountry of Italy, stationed in the tiny dots on the map of Muccia and Pievebovigliana. It’s said that the family is still involved in the creation of its liqueurs. Their roster includes a couple of other punches, a mandarin liqueur, and a delightful, cocoa-y less-alcoholic (about half of that of Fantasia at 18% ABV) sipper called Skipass, among others.
