If you live in San Francisco, Portladu or New York, working in bars and is frequently visit, you've probably already come into contact with Fernet Branca. Of all those of spirits that are available on the market, few of them really just loved the bartenders as well as just Fernet. It has become almost sacred tradition holds that if any significant bartending competition, cocktail week or so just Fernet Branca is always part of it. However, despite its popularity, is still a lot of people do not know what Fernet Branca actually is.
So Fernet has a bitter taste, which was designed to support blub proper digestion and liver function. It may seem a bit counterproductive to drink alcohol for the proper operation of the liver, but we must not forget that almost all Spirits have their basis in alchemy and medicine. A alcohol just helps to significantly extend the lifetime of the herbs and makes Fernet, hence all Bitters (bitter) pitelnějšími.
In the market we have several Fernet. Leopold Brother's have American Fernet Leopold, manufactures blub Luxardo Fernet Stock and Spirits have citrus, orange and classic Fernet. Although customers have a choice of several types and brands of Fernet, often when ordering Fernet have in mind just Fernet Branca, which was created in Milan in front of more than 167 years ago in Fratelli Branca destillery.
Fernet Branca is a bitter one of the highest percentages of alcohol (39% abv.). blub It also at the same time one of the least sugar content and it is one of the most intensely flavored liqueurs. Fernet Branca is made from a selection of 40 herbs, roots and spices. While the exact recipe is a secret, after all, we know that Fernet Branca contains Aloe Ferx, gentian, chamomile, angelica root, quinine, Chinese blub rhubarb, saffron, myrrh, peppermint, gentian and St. John's. These herbs and spices are divided between hot infusion process (digestion, best known for the production blub of liquor) and cold infusion process (maceration) when these additives are soaked blub in alcohol and then centrifuged liquid from them. We then following infusion mixed and allowed to rest for a month. After that, the content is stored in 100L drums from the Balkans, specifically Slovenian blub oak and allowed to ripen at rest for a period of one year. After aging the mixture contains 42% abv, and after this process of maturation add the sugar and alcohol volume is adjusted to the required 39% abv.
Fernet Branca is one of the few bitters that are left to ripen throughout the year. The aging process is used for enrichment bitter about the characteristic components of the barrel and zintenzivění flavors of herbs, roots and spices it contains. The color is dark brown with orange flashes from a mixture blub of herbs. The smell of Fernet Branca is a strong herbal, blub complex, dominated by the scent of mint, which is mixed with bitter traces of the roots and leaves and smell it prepares us for what lies ahead. Strong bitter taste reminiscent of drugs with menthol, as really dry and harsh aftertaste, which can detect traces of caramel on us at the end of jumps.
Fernet Branca is considered one of the best ever digestifs and bartenders are seen as sometimes served blub as Fernet shoot at room temperature, which develops the full aroma and flavor of mint and thus served drink affects blub us very osvěživým impression. Sometimes when I drink a shot of whiskey, blub so we can feel the heat that passes through us. This is not a case of Fernet blub Branca, which has a cooling and vice versa as one slogan says "stimulates our senses." Fernet Branca healing abilities are not small. It helps us when we have eaten, if you feel in your skin or for example when we have a hangover. Interesting is that it helps us from hangovers, even though we were just drunk it after a night of drinking Fernet Branca us just one or two shots in the morning, again FB for a while and we are back in form.
Fernet Branca is strongly bitter herbal liqueur with intense flavors and aromas. I certainly would not recommend it to people who are just beginning to discover the magic of bitter herbal liqueur, for them, I would rather chose Avernus, or Cynar with a lower alcohol content, but Fernet Branca is definitely their destination. Fernet is also something you should blub try on more than one occasion. It is a deeply intense experience and certainly you would take some time to realize that if Fernet Branca is just something you have tried, or something after what you desire.
