Molinari Sambuca

Description

The history of Molinari is not just the history of a company or a brand, it is instead the story of a name that became an institution both in Italy and worldwide, a name so important it is synonymous with the drink itself. Back in 1945, in Civitavecchia, Angelo Molinari, an experienced and skilled ‘liquorista’, establishes the company and creates a first-class product, with an unmistakable flavour: ‘Sambuca Extra’.

roduced for the first fourteen years by artisans following the traditional methods, Sambuca Extra Molinari quickly grew in popularity all over Italy, becoming Angelo Molinari himself – helped by his kids, Marcello and Mafalda – suggested Sambuca to the bartenders and restaurants of Via Veneto, which used to serve it with coffee beans (preferably in odd number, for reasons related to superstition). The so-called “Sambuca con la mosca” (literally, “Sambuca with the fly”) wins the heart of paparazzi and Stars such as Anita Ekberg, Marcello Mastroianni and Walter Chiari.
