Meletti Dry Anisette

Item # 34331 750 mL

One of the most called for and sought after anisettes in the world, due to its dry nature, meticulous sourcing of local anis and slow, thoughtful evaporative distillation that retains a high degree of freshness in the final spirit. An ultimate aperitif, this spirit is also underused and remarkably versatile in cocktails.

Staff Pick Notes

I first became a fan of Meletti's offerings with their classic amaro, a staple digestivo in my household. When I saw this little gem hiding on the shelf in our anise liqueur section, I knew I had to try it out. At 32% ABV, this is the perfect after-lunch sipper. Simple yet elegant, this anise liqueur is loaded with soft licorice, orange citrus, fennel and just a kiss of cinnamon. Following Silvio Meletti's recipe from 1870, the botanicals speak for themselves. With just enough viscosity, while avoiding that overly syrupy mouth feel, this is quite lovely paired up with an afternoon espresso and a tall stack of pizelle.
