FACCIA BRUTO

"The bitter and complex soul of a contemporary amaro: a craft infusion of roots, herbs, and spices that pays tribute to the Italian Fernet tradition from Brooklyn."
Fernet Pianta: The Artisanal Reinterpretation of an Italian-American Bitter Classic
The Fernet Pianta Liqueur (Faccia Bruto) 750ml is a cult creation from the craft distillery Faccia Bruto Spirits, based in the heart of Brooklyn, New York. This Fernet-style amaro is born from a secret recipe that combines over 20 organic botanicals, including bitter roots, barks, flowers, and spices, macerated and infused with artisanal precision. After its production, the spirit rests subtly in used oak barrels, which provides additional roundness and complexity without losing the vibrant bitterness and herbal freshness that characterizes the great Fernets.
