Meletti Anisetta is one of Italy’s most storied and authentic anise liqueurs, produced by the Silvio Meletti Company using a recipe and distillation technique unchanged since 1870. Crafted from green anise (pimpinella anisum) grown in the clay soils of the Ascolano area of Le Marche — where the variety develops an aromatic intensity two to three times greater than elsewhere in the Mediterranean — Anisetta Meletti is the product of discontinuous water bath distillation, enriched by a secondary aromatic distillation of carefully selected fruits, seeds, and flowers. The result is a liqueur of genuine character: smooth, decisive, and rooted in living tradition. Now in its fifth generation of family ownership, Meletti remains one of Italy’s most respected and celebrated distillers.

Appearance

Crystal clear with a brilliant, luminous quality — characteristic of a finely crafted anise distillate.

Aroma

Pure, lifted anise leads the nose with immediate clarity and intensity, underpinned by delicate herbal and floral notes from the secondary aromatic distillation. Inviting and unmistakably Italian in character.

Palate

Rounder and drier than the nose suggests, with a decisive anise character that keeps the herbal properties of the spirit unaltered. A gentle sweetness provides balance without softening the liqueur’s inherent authority. Clean, lingering, and deeply satisfying.

Serving Suggestions

Smooth and neat, on the rocks, frozen, or as a coffee correction. Best enjoyed ‘con la mosca’ — with three roasted coffee beans immersed in the glass, a classic Italian tradition that adds a beautiful aromatic counterpoint to the anise.
