Description Of History And Philosophy:
Averna Amaro Siciliano was first crafted as a secret herbal elixir believed to have tonic and therapeutic qualities at the Santo Spirito Abbey in Caltanissetta. In 1868, Salvatore Averna began creating this infusion of all natural ingredients, which include dried fruits, fresh herbs, spices, and plant roots as his friends and family having been given the recipe by the monks as a sign of gratitude. With each generation of the Averna family, the company has grown as has the demand for their amaro. Today, under the management of the fourth generation, Averna is the market leader in Italy and a force in the international marketplace. Continuing this legacy, Averna is developing innovative new projects and products while remaining true to purity and traditions of its foundation.
