Strega Sambuca is a high-quality, crystal-clear Italian liqueur known for its intense anise and licorice flavors, often with subtle notes of coffee and peppermint. It is produced through distillation of natural plant substances, including elder flower, coffee, and star anise, and is aged to balance the aromas. Strega Sambuca is typically served neat, on the rocks, or with a coffee bean (the "fly").
